Three Spanish American War worksheets: Multiple choice with 60 questions for a thorough review or test, plus 2 matching worksheets -- one basic, one advanced so you can have differentiated learning materials at your fingertips!

How did the United States first start to become a world power? That's a complex question, but one of the key factors was the nation's victory in the Spanish-American War.

About the student materials you will get in these Spanish-American War worksheets

This teaching resource contains three different worksheets. All of them cover the same basic content: the causes, course, and consequences of the Spanish-American War.

The first worksheet is a comprehensive multiple-choice overview of the Spanish-American War, containing 60 questions that can be answered using most high-school level textbooks or online resources related to the war.

The last two worksheets consist of matching problems designed to help students do a targeted review of key people and items that they should have mastered. Because the matching worksheets focus only on these highly important historical entries, they work very well as quizzes or tests.

Matching Worksheet A is the “basic” version of such a test because it contains only 10 definitions, each one of which matches to a person or thing on the provided list. That is, there are not extraneous answers provided as distractors. Teachers may find that Worksheet A is perfect for students who benefit from more streamlined materials.

Matching Worksheet B, on the other hand, is the “advanced” version of the same test. Questions and answers are identical to those on the “ basic” matching worksheet, but additional unused answers are also mixed in so that students have more entries to choose from.


Content Included in these Spanish American War Worksheets

These question sets are titled “American Imperialism: The Spanish-American War” because they are not intended to be a comprehensive view of all 19th century American imperialism. Instead, they cover a limited range of topics:

• Cuba’s ongoing conflicts with Spain in the late 1800s
• American business interests in Cuba
• Jose Marti’s rebellion and Spain’s response
• Yellow journalism and growing war fever in America
• The destruction of the U.S.S. Maine
• Initial fighting in the Philippines
• War readiness of the U.S. Army in 1898
• Fighting in Cuba; African American regiments, Theodore Roosevelt and the Rough Riders
• The provisions of the Treaty of Paris
• American reactions to the idea of empire

Other American imperialism topics, such as the Panama Canal and the Open Door Policy, will be covered in forthcoming question sets.
