Description
Carnegie, Rockefeller, monopolies, trust-busting, Captains of Industry or Robber Barons – there’s a lot to teach students about the United States’ industrial growth! This ready to go slide deck (available as both a PowerPoint and Google Slides) begins with the railroad, oil & steel industries and goes on to cover the Sherman Anti-Trust Act, and labor issues. The 70 slides wrap up with the rise of labor unions & major strikes and the creation of the American Socialist Party.
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!
