Reconstruction PowerPoint & Guided Notes (Print and Digital)

Description

Are you teaching the Reconstruction period after the American Civil War? This ready to go slide deck (available as both a PowerPoint and Google Slides) begins with Lincoln’s 10% Plan and covers Reconstruction after his assassination through Johnson’s Presidency and the Compromise of 1877 (Tilden-Hayes Compromise). The 56 slides also includes Johnson’s Plan, Congressional/Radical Reconstruction, 14th & 15 Amendments, and the impeachment of Johnson. It wraps up with a look at the South after Reconstruction.

 

Not only does this download include the slide deck, but it also includes 7 pages of fill in the blank guided notes to keep your students engaged and on task!

 

It’s also flexible! The text in the slide deck is editable AND an editable PowerPoint version of the fill in the blank guided notes (without the fancy fonts and clip art) is included! You can add something specific to the slide deck and notes that your state standards include or delete something that your curriculum doesn’t cover. You can also add more blanks to the guided notes or take some away.

 

As if that wasn’t enough! The download includes both print and digital guided notes (Google Slides and fillable PDF options) to give you even more classroom flexibility.

 

Its flexible design is purposefully created to make your life easier!
