The twenty example texts have been sub-divided thematically into five sections for more focused review. Your group is looking at materials which would likely be used to introduce the topic of the text set, women's voting rights, but focuses more broadly on voting to provide students background knowledge.
Potentially Relevant Standards from the C3 (College, Career, & Civic Life) Framework for Social Studies State Standards include:
Within your group, decide who examines which of the four texts. (Note: If you have more than four group members, put multiple people on whichever text(s) seems the most complicated. If you have fewer than four group members, choose which text(s) not to review).
After reviewing your text(s) reflect on the following questions and take notes on your thoughts:
Reconvene with your group members and report back on your text, sharing answers to the above questions. This verbally models the annotations you will do when constructing your own text set when completing the Integrated Multicultural Unit Reflection assignment.
Be prepared to share out your group's thoughts with the larger class after reviewing this section of the larger example text set.
