Description
160 skill-based activities (mini-lessons, bell ringers, warm-ups, bell work, start-nows, early-finishers, enrichment work) focusing on historical thinking skills (simple review activities and more complex activities are included). Most activities incorporate primary sources such as maps, photos, art, quotes, and more. Links to videos and supplementary resources are also included in this resource. (Primary source citations are included in the speaker notes.)
Student completion time for each activity varies. Some activities may be followed by group discussion, thereby extending the length of the activity.
This resource can be shared with students in its entirety or teachers can share one slide at a time as needed. (I share my slides with students one slide at a time.)
