Description
- Overview:
- In this lesson, students use a guided reading to look at a report on the status of education in North Carolina in 1869, and discuss the reasons given then for why the Governor and Legislature should support educating North Carolina's children. They are provided an opportunity to compare and contrast the 1869 document against their own ideas about the civic duty to attend school through age sixteen, and its relative value to the state and the country.

Solid lesson plan! As a social studies educator, I really like the basis of the lesson because it resonates with students that their citizenship and education are important, while also teaching them history. The only critique I have is that the quality of instructional and practice exercises could be further elaborated.
