Materials

• Overhead developed during session 1 discussion, entitled, “What students think are correct answers to questions about how, when, where, and why settlers journeyed to the New World in 1700.”

Instructional Activities

1. Briefly review activity from the previous session, as needed.
   
   
2. Display the overhead made during the first session, reflecting students’ perceptions of this time period. Ask students to discuss whether their perceptions prior to study of this organizing topic were supported by what they learned or not.
   
   
3. Conduct a review. This may be done with flash cards purchased or produced by students. A competition between groups within the class could be used to reinforce content.
   
   
4. Instruct students to respond to a writing prompt on the content. (Examples of prompts with rubrics are provided on Attachment B.)
   
   
5. Have students complete their colonial map.
