Who was affected more by the Battle of Gettysburg: the soldiers or the civilians? Students will analyze primary sources related to the Battle of Gettysburg using primary sources such as personal narratives, letters, maps, political cartoons, and speeches. As they examine the primary sources in this inquiry, students will first examine how the Battle of Gettysburg affected the soldiers and then the civilians. The final activity will have students analyze the Gettysburg Address and if its impact was more important for the soldiers who fought in the battle or the civilians. Close examination of the supporting questions will guide students to answer the compelling question. The resource was created by Andrew Halsey, Winnebago Public Schools, as part of the Nebraska ESUCC Social Studies Special Projects 2024 - Inquiry Design Model (IDM).
