Student Interactive Notebook— Students can respond to assignments online or copies of the handouts can be made for student responses. BEFORE READING: Introduce the sites on this week’s tour through the Southeast. This week students will tour Sites 7-9. They will board a motorboat for a short journey to the next site on their tour Site 7 is an Oil Rig in the Gulf of Mexico. Upon returning to shore they will get back on the bus and travel to a cotton plantation home in Natchez, Mississippi. Finally, they will get back on the bus and travel to the Civil Rights Memorial in Montgomery, Alabama. Slides 47-.51 Tell students that they will have additional readings this week about the Civil Rights movement in the Southeast region. DURING READING: Students will be touring Sites 7-9 of their tour. At each site they will list to their tour guide, read in their textbook, draw a symbol of the site’s location on their map, and identify key facts and adjectives that describe each site. (Slides 33-37) AFTER READING: Students have completed their tour of the Southeast. However, they will be exploring some sites later in their home state of Arkansas. At this time have students draw lines in their map in their notebook to show the route they followed (Slide 57) Activity: Writing for Understanding Letter Writing (Slides 58-62).
