We began class by watching CNN Student News (except period 1).
Next, students returned to the partners they were with yesterday. With that partner they answered the question "What would bankers at the Second Bank of the U.S. think of Jackson?" After a few minutes we discussed the question with the class and I recorded responses on the board.
Students then took-out their Kaleidoscope Activity from previous classes. On the back, they filled in the portion of the Kaleidoscope, reflecting on how a baker would perceive Jackson, using information written on the board.
Next, I showed students a video clip about Jackson and dueling.
Video- Jackson and Dueling
After the video, I gave students a reading on Jackson's early life. They read the article with their partners, stopping and writing comments in the "thought bubbles" on their papers.
Jackson's Early Life- Acticle
Homework is to finish the reading on Jackson's Early Life and write thorough comments in the thought bubbles in the margin of the article.
