Our interdisciplinary unit is written with the overall theme of “The Civil War”. Each of our lessons uses events, people, or data from this important time period in United State history. Each of our lessons was developed to be implemented over multiple days.Our math lesson involves using real data collected by the students to compare the number of troops killed in various battles. Our science lesson relates to the prevalent diseases of the time and how medical care providers treated them. Our music lesson focuses on the significance of music and how it helped the slaves pass hidden messages and gave hope during the civil war. Our reading lesson uses readers theater to illustrate what life was like in the 1860’s.

Using these lessons, our students will gain a greater understanding of the events and outcomes of the Civil War. By relating each of these subjects, the students will have multiple exposures to information with a common theme. By interrelating the curriculum, the students have the opportunity to see the Civil War from different perspectives and be able to tie the information to prior knowledge.

Music Lesson OverviewInstructor: Kristine Rodriguez

The focus of the music lesson is on the power of song to bring people together, even in times of great divide. Students will study the hidden meanings of spirituals sung by slaves as they prepared for their journey to freedom. They will read poems written by soldiers and learn battlecries of the North and the South. Students will learn the significance of music to energize the war effort, and to give hope to the suffering. The culminating activity will be a performance of Civil War music for an invited audience.

Reading Lesson OverviewInstructor: Serena Franklin

The purpose of the reading plan lesson was to teach the student how to develop their own reader’s theatre using a book that they were required to read. This lesson plan was developed to increase the students’ fluency and comprehension level. The students were divided in three groups and each group developed a separate reader’s theatre. I taught the students how to read a reader’s theatre using expression and tone. Also, they were taught how to change the expression and tone throughout a reader’s theatre. Also, the narrator was taught how she/he needed to narrate using tone and expression. We went over different reader’s theaters in a whole/small group. The students were assessed by creating their own reader’s theatre and performing it in front of the faculty. One group did before the Civil War, the next during the Civil War, and the third after the Civil War.
