FREE SOCIAL STUDIES LESSON - “FREEBIE: President Thomas Jefferson Reading, Writing and History Unit Gr 5-9”

by Two Pencils and a Book
4th - 12th Grade

Student-Centered Classroom, Digital and Hybrid Unit on Thomas Jefferson.

Reading, writing and history that spans the life and presidency of Thomas Jefferson. Differentiated and engaging - this unit can be delivered and completed in various ways for maximum student access. Perfect for grades 5-9. Super for presidents' day 4-12.

There are two parts to this student-centered unit – a WebQuest and in class or home packet/digital work. The packet may be printed for students or it is in PDF form fillable. This is inquiry-based unit designed for students to search for knowledge.

Class or Digital Work: This unit is differentiated and has assignments for group work, partner work or single student work. In the ideal, no pandemic world, I find students are more engaged searching for answers, reading the passages and completing the work together, but sometimes our world is not ideal.

The entire unit, inclusive of WebQuest and work pages, can also be completed in stations. My students love this – as they get to move around. Sometimes working with partners, groups or alone.

Finally, the form fillable PDF is perfect to upload to Google.
