Causes of Independence in Latin America

A Powerpoint presentation file that contains two pages, one with a spider diagram that requires students to fill in the various causes of the Wars of Independence in Latin America. The second page is a prompt that could be used either as a lead-in to a class discussion or as a writing assignment. The file is easily convertible to PDF if you choose to use it as a handout. The activity was originally designed for use with a pre-IB Grade 10 class, but it could suit a variety of levels. Links and suggested resources are included!
