Conspiracy: Movie Worksheets (Wannsee Conference Movie Worksheets) -- PDF Version

(0)
Conspiracy Movie Worksheets are designed to help students pay better attention and learn more as they watch this highly accurate real-time re-enactment of the 1942 Wannsee Conference. The movie stars Kenneth Branagh and Stanley Tucci as Reinhard Heydrich and Adolf Eichmann, the two chief architects of Nazi Germany's "Final Solution to the Jewish Question." WHAT THESE CONSPIRACY MOVIE WORKSHEETS INCLUDE --Detailed teaching notes including information on how to prep students to watch the movie and what vocabulary to introduce in advance --Detailed rating and content information [The movie is rated R for language and verbal content only; there is absolutely no onscreen violence or nudity.] --128 multiple choice questions in movie order --128 parallel free-response questions in movie order: The free response question prompts are the same ones as used in the multiple choice questions, allowing teachers an easy way to differentiate instruction. --Fast correct student answer sheet with identically formatted answer key for the multiple choice set. Students can record all their answers on a single page, and teachers can rapidly correct all student work! --Detailed answer key for the free-response question set. CONVENIENCE FEATURES All student prompts are in exact movie order so that the worksheets can be used while the movie plays if desired. Alternately, teachers can save the worksheets for afterwards, using them as a test or quiz. 128 questions of each type give teachers lots and lots of options. Differentiate by assigning student groups to do just the odds or just the evens of multiple choice to space the questions out more. This will give you TWO basic level worksheets instead of one. Or do the same with the free-response questions to instantly create TWO advanced-level worksheets. Stop and start the movie whenever you please! The questions are numbered sequentially instead of being divided up into predesignated parts in advance, which makes it easy for you to stop the movie at any time and resume it later. Just for reference, I usually show Conspiracy over the course of three days to allow plenty of time to discuss and debrief, but if you want to stretch that out to four days or compress it to just two [the movie is 96 minutes long], this question set gives you all the flexibility you need!

U.S. Constitution Analysis: Preamble and Enumerated Powers Worksheet

U.S. Constitution Analysis: Preamble and Enumerated Powers Worksheet

(0)
Help your students understand the Preamble as never before even as they engage in critical analysis skills, examining the Enumerated Powers of Congress as listed in Article I as they work their way through these Preamble and Enumerated Powers Worksheets. Reading the Constitution is one thing, but thinking carefully and critically about it is far more valuable! This worksheet will give teachers the tools they need to help students analyze the Enumerated Powers of Congress. Many students find the Enumerated Powers rather boring, but there's no reason for that, not when they are given the opportunity to dive deep into the text and do a little close reading analysis! Encourage Deep Learning with these U.S. Constitution Analysis Worksheets The goal of these worksheets is to encourage students to think more deeply about how actions by Congress can serve the nation by fulfilling the goals of government listed in the Preamble. These goals are: • to form a more perfect union • to establish justice • to ensure domestic tranquility • to provide for the common defense • to promote the general welfare • to secure the blessings of liberty Format of these Enumerated Powers Worksheets In this activity, students are provided with a simplified list of the enumerated powers and are asked to classify them according to which goal of government they tend to serve. For example, the Constitution specifies that Congress can establish and support a navy; this clearly relates to providing for the "common defense." Other powers will require them to think more deeply, however. What goal does the establishment of bankruptcy and copyright laws promote, for example? My idea in writing this was to make the enumerated powers something the students could work with and consider instead of just a list we go over and they quickly forget. The way it is structured should lead students to a finer understanding of the Preamble as well. Follow-Up Included with this Preamble and Enumerated Powers Worksheet In the follow-up, students are challenged to think beyond the text and come up with their own list of powers that they would grant to Congress if they were designing the government from scratch.
