Description

This is a one day lesson that helps students to understand the point of view of those who supported the Manifest Destiny.  Students will analyze a painting from John Gast (America’s Progress) and two quotes from John O’Sullivan. For formative assessment, students create a new version of the America’s Progress painting from a different point of view.

Students practice Historical thinking skills – Point of View and Historical Context.

This lesson plan is linked with NYS Social Studies standards, however, I’m sure you could add your own.

This zip file includes:
