LESSON PLANOBJECTIVE: Explain the causes, major events, and consequences of the Civil War (GPS) (5SS_C2008-30)
MATERIALS: circles, tape, graphic organizer WS, Dear America: When Will this Cruel War be Over?, My Name is
America: The Journal of James Edmond Peace, paper, pencils, graphic floor organizer
OPENING: Throughout your social studies units so far on the civil war, you all have had a lot of information. Can anybody
tell me some of the information you have learned so far? How about any other ideas from the Civil War that you
might have not learned yet? [ Get about 8 -10 responses all together]
PROCEDURE:
As the students are thinking about the information, write their responses on the board.
Tell students that we are going to figure out a way to organize some of the information from the board. We will look at the
ideas we already know.
T will tell S that one of the ways we can organize the information is by doing a graphic organizer, like a web.
Then pull out the circles for the graphic organizer. Tell them that this is the web we are working with today.
T will then pass out the paper plates with ideas already written down on them and have them organize them as a table as
to where they will put them on the web. [Give 5 minutes or so]
Then tell them to pick two people at the table to come and put the ideas on the web.
Then as a class, we will check and see if we placed the ideas in the right area.
Then pass out the graphic organizer WS and tell the students to circle the bubbles in the color on the floor
Have students write down the ideas on their WS. Then have them fold in half hamburger style and glue in their SS
notebook.
If completed activity in time, then move on to talking about journal entries and during these times, many people had
journals.
Show them the two books for them to see that boys and girls wrote in journals
Then explain to them that they will be writing a journal entry and ask them to try and use Civil War ideas from the graphic
organizer, or from the ideas we thought of together.
ASSESSMENT: As a class, we are going to see how we did on constructing the graphic organizer and putting the ideasin place.

OTHER INFORMATION
ABOUT THIS LESSON
The idea of a floor graphic organizer, came
about because I wanted to make it interesting
and fun for the children. This activity
included:
hands on activity, the students working
independently and dependently, and also the
children using their prior knowledge to think
about this information presented in the graphic
organizer.

CONNECTION FOR THE
STUDENTSEven though I ran out of time with this lessonplan, I had a literacy connection planned. Iwould have used these two books and havethe children write a journal entry like they
were living during the Civil War
Dear America:When Will ThisCruel War BeOver?
My Name isAmerica: The
Journal of JamesEdmond Pease
WHAT I LEARNED FROM

WHAT I LEARNED FROMDOING THISBefore I started doing this lesson plan, Ithought this would be a boring activity for the
students and I did not know where to start. As
I was riding home I thought of an idea and I
thought it would be a good idea. The students
were very engaged and it was a good lesson plan
for me to do. I would use it again with a
different topic in the future, and especially in
my own classroom.
