VS.1 (a, e and g): a. Students will analyze and interpret artifacts and primary and secondary sources to understand events in Virginia History; e. Students will compare and contrast ideas and cultural perspectives in Virginia history; g. Students will make historical connections across time. These skills will be addressed within the unit in multiple ways. The students will be using primary and secondary sources and artifacts to learn about the biographical information being presented. Students will also be comparing and contrasting ideas of historical figures.
VS. 3 d. Students will identify the impacts of being forced to the Jamestown Settlement on African Americans.VS.8 b. Students will identify the effects of segregation on the lives of African Americans. Students will be learning about the specific historical events and figures tied to these time periods and will be learning them in truth with primary sources.
VS.9 c. Students will describe the social and political events in Virginia linked to desegregation and Massive Resistance and their relationship to national history. Students will not only be learning about historical figures, but the movements and organizations of resistance they were involved in. Teaching history in this manner will allow for centuries of figures, events and movements to be linked properly. We will also discuss Maggie Walker, Harry Byrd, Oliver W. Hill, Arthur Ashe, Linwood Holton and Douglas Wilder for this standard.
