Lesson seeds are ideas that can be used to build a lesson aligned to the CCSS. Lesson seeds are not meant to be all-inclusive, nor are they substitutes for instruction.When developing lessons from these seeds, teachers must consider the needs of all learners. It is also important to build checkpoints into the lessons where appropriate formative assessment will inform a teacher’s instructional pacing and delivery. This lesson assumes students have already read through Chapter 3 in preparation for this lesson. Teachers could use a modified version of the PARCC scoring rubric to assess student writing. Full rubric can be found in the resources for teachers to modify for use in their classroom:IMPORTANT NOTE: Consider the need for Accessible Instructional Materials (AIM) and/or for captioned/described video when selecting texts, novels, video and/or other media for this unit. See “Sources for Accessible Media” for suggestions. See Maryland Learning Links.Cover Image: "The Assassination of President Lincoln" from Cornell University Library at Flickr.com
