Fifth Grade: United States History – The fifth grade Social Studies curriculum consists of the following content area strands: American History, Geography, Economics, and Civics. Fifth grade students will study the development of our nation with emphasis on the people, places and events up to approximately 1850. Students will be exposed to the historical, geographic, political, economic, and sociological events which influenced the initial inhabitation, exploration, colonization, and early national periods of American History. So that students can see clearly the relationship between cause and effect in history, students should also have the opportunity to understand how individuals and events of this period influenced later events in the development of our nation.

The benchmarks in the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards (NGSSS) identify knowledge and skills students are expected to acquire at each grade level, with the underlying expectation that students also demonstrate critical thinking.

The categories—low complexity, moderate complexity, high complexity—form an ordered description of the demands a test item may make on a student. Instruction in the classroom should match, at a minimum, the complexity level of the learning target in the curriculum map.

Low Complexity Low-complexity items may require students to recall and recognize previously learned concepts, facts, and principles. Items typically require a single step or simple demonstration of social studies skills and abilities. Items in this category do not necessarily require the student to apply previously learned information in a new scenario or context. Skills required to respond to low-complexity items may include, but are not limited to, the following:

define the correct meanings of social-studies-related words, concepts, and terminology

identify or recall common contemporary or historical events, actions, personalities, or concepts

utilize a chart, table diagram, graph, or image to recall or recognize information

identify characteristics of a group, place, or event

Moderate Complexity Moderate-complexity items involve greater flexibility of thought and choice among alternatives than low-complexity items. Items require a response that goes beyond the habitual, is not specified, and ordinarily has more than a single step or thought process. The student is expected to apply previously learned material in new ways—using informal methods of reasoning and problem-solving strategies—and to bring together skills and knowledge from various domains. Skills required to respond to moderate-complexity items may include, but are not limited to, the following:

apply or infer cause-and-effect relationships

identify outcomes of particular cause-and-effect relationships

identify the significance of historical or contemporary events, actions, personalities, or concepts

categorize historical or contemporary people, places, events, or concepts

determine the relationship between historical or contemporary events, actions, personalities, or concepts

explain historical or contemporary problems, patterns, or issues

High Complexity High-complexity items make heavy demands on student thinking. Students must engage in more abstract reasoning, planning, analysis, judgment, and creative thought. The items often involve multiple steps and require the student to think in an abstract, sophisticated way. Skills required to respond to high-complexity items may include, but are not limited to, the following:

solve or predict the outcome of a problem

generalize or draw conclusions when presented with historical or contemporary information

provide justification for events, actions, or issues in the past or current timeframe

predict a long-term result, outcome, or change within society

analyze how changes have influenced people or social institutions

recognize and explain historical or contemporary misconceptions

analyze similarities and differences between historical or contemporary events

COGNITIVE COMPLEXITY: Low, Moderate, High What Does It Mean?

The Social Studies Curriculum Map has been developed by teachers for teachers for ease of use during instructional planning. Definitions for the framework of the curriculum map components are defined below.

Organizing Principle: the overarching organizational structure used to group content and concepts within the curriculum map

Pacing: the recommended time frames within the year determined by teacher committee for initial delivery of instruction

Topics: a grouping of standards and skills that form a subset of concepts covered in each unit of study Benchmarks/Learning Targets: the content knowledge, processes, and enabling skills that will ensure successful mastery of the standards

Standards: the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards required in the course descriptions posted on CPALMS by FLDOE

Academic Language: the content vocabulary and other academic language and phrases that support mastery of the benchmarks/learning targets; for teacher and student use alike

Resource Alignment: a listing of available, high quality and appropriate materials, strategies, lessons, textbooks, videos and other media sources that are aligned with the benchmarks/learning targets *The American History standards are repeated within each unit throughout the year

ORGANIZING PRINCIPLES – 5TH

GRADE U.S. AND FL HISTORY

1: During the 1800’s the West became a magnet for people seeking adventure, religious freedoms, and economic opportunities. (Chpts 16 & 17)

2: The idea of reform-the drive to improve society and the lives of Americans by addressing social issues-grew between 1820 and 1850. (Chapter 18)

3: The Civil War was caused by historic economic, social, political, sectional differences that were further emotionalized by the issue of slavery.

(Chapters 19 & 20)

4: From 1861-1865, the Union and the Confederacy fought a brutal war pitting brother against brother. (Chapter 21) COW CALVALRY

5: After the Civil War, reconstruction effectively determined the nature of the Union, the economic direction of the United States, and political control of the country. (Chapter

22)

6: During the late 19th

Century, Native Americans’ ways of life were adversely affected as the Western United States settled. (Chapter 23) DEPARTING FOR DESTINY and

RETURN TO BIG CYPRESS

7: During the time period known as the “Gilded Age” (1870’s until early 1900’s) a booming industry fueled by immigration led to the growth of cities and friction between

workers and factory owners. (Chapter 24 & 25) WHERE PEACEFUL WATERS FLOW

8: The Progressive movement partially succeeded in improving life for average Americans by curbing big business, making government more responsive to the will of the people

and enacting social welfare legislation. (Chapter 26)

9: From the 1890’s to 1918, the United States became increasingly active and aggressive in world affairs. (Chapter 27)

10: The stark contrast from the Roaring twenties to the Great Depression led to the expectation of government intervention to maintain the economic stability of the nation through

the “New Deal.” (Chapter 28) A DEADLY BOND, ORANGE FRITTERS AND A STORY, and SEMINOLE STEER

11: The world’s triumph over fascism during WWII led to America’s emergence as a super power. (Chapter 29) U-123

12: The Cold War led the U.S. to pursue ambivalent policy of confrontation, negotiation, and preventative maintenance between 1945-1970. (Chapter 30)

13: Between 1954-1973, a campaign for equal rights for all Americans gained momentum with civil disobedience and other forms of protest. (Chapter 31)

14: Since the 1950’s, the U.S. has faced triumph and tragedy, political transformation, clashes in a changing culture, changes in foreign and domestic affairs, economic policy, and

technological innovations. (Chapter 32)

Name Description Additional Information

A & D Statements

A & D Statements analyze a set of “fact or fiction” statements. First, students may

choose to agree or disagree with a statement or identify whether they need more information. Students are asked to describe their thinking about why they agree, disagree, or are unsure. In the second part, students describe what they can do to investigate the statement by testing their ideas, researching what is already known, or using other means of inquiry.

Statement How can you find out?

All landmarks are man-

made in the United

States.

__agree __disagree

__it depends on __not

sure

My thoughts:

Agreement Circles

Agreement Circles provide a kinesthetic way to activate thinking and engage students in argumentation. Students stand in a circle as the teacher reads a statement. They face their peers still standing and match themselves up in small groups of opposing beliefs. Students discuss and defend their positions. After some students defend their answers, teacher can ask if others have been swayed. If so, stand up. If not, what are your thoughts? Why did you disagree? After hearing those who disagree, does anyone who has agreed want to change their minds? Use when students have had some exposure to the content.

Constitution 1. Government was established through a written Constitution. 2. The Constitution of the United States is the supreme law of the land. 3. Government gains its power from the people.

Anotated Student Drawings

Annotated Student Drawings are student-made, labeled illustrations that visually represent and describe students’ thinking about concepts. Modification for younger students: verbally describe and name parts of their drawings while the teacher annotates it for them.

Card Sorts

Card Sorts is a sorting activity in which students group a set of cards with pictures or words according to certain characteristics or category. Students sort the cards based on their preexisting ideas about the concepts, objects, or processes on the cards. As students sort the cards they discuss their reasons or placing each card into a designated group. This activity promotes discussion and active thinking.

Chain Notes

Chain Notes begin with a question printed at the top of a paper. The paper is then circulated from student to student. Each student responds with one to two sentences related to the question and passes it on to the next student. A student can add a new thought or build on a previous statement.

What information can we learn from maps?

1. We can find landforms, lakes, mountains, oceans, and regions.

2. Directions, compass rose, scale, and map key are always on a map.

3. Different purposes for maps: population, physical, political, and elevation.

Commit and Toss

Commit and Toss is an anonymous technique used to get a quick read on the different

ideas students have in the class. Students are given a question and asked to answer it AND explain their thinking. They write this on a piece of paper. The paper is crumpled into a ball. Once the teacher gives the signal, they either toss/pass/or place the ball in a basket. Students take turns reading their "caught" response. Once all ideas have been made public and discussed, engage students in a class discussion to decide which ideas they believe are the most plausible and to provide justification for the thinking. THIS IS A FUN, ENGAGING TECHNIQUE! BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVERUSE IT OR IT WILL LOSE ITS EFFECTIVENESS.

Exploration

The Spanish King sent explorers to North America for a variety of reasons. What do you think was the main reason? A. share gold with the American Indians. B. to find new routes to Africa. C. to claim land and convert American Indians to the

Catholic religion. D. become allies with the American Indians.

Explain your thinking. Describe the reason for the answer you selected.

Concept Card Mapping

Concept Card Mapping is a variation on concept mapping. Students are given cards

with the concepts written on them. They move the cards around and arrange them as a connected web of knowledge. They create linkages between the concept cards that describe the relationship between concepts.

Student Instructions: 1. Think about the question 2. In your head, compose some sentences/ statements that answer the question. 3. When the paper comes to you, read the other statements and add something new.

Concept Cartoons

Concept Cartoons are cartoon drawings that visually depict children or adults sharing their ideas about common everyday social studies. Students decide which character in the cartoon they agree with most and why. This formative is designed to engage and motivate students to uncover their own ideas and encourage argumentation. Concept Cartoons are most often used at the beginning of a new concept or skill. These are designed to probe students’ thinking about everyday situations they encounter. Not all cartoons have one “right answer”. Allow students time to for ideas to simmer and stew to increase cognitive engagement.

Directed Paraphrasing

Directed Paraphrasing provides an interesting, creative, and challenging way for students to summarize what they learned in their own words, use appropriate social studies terminology, and consider the best communicate their understanding to a specific audience. When one has to explain something to others, one’s own learning increases.

Prompt students to express the definition or explanation of a concept in their own words.

Name Description Additional Information

Fact First Questioning

Fact First Questioning is a higher-order questioning technique used to draw out student’s

knowledge. It takes a factual “what” question and turns it into a deeper “how” or “why” question. Teacher’s state the fact first and then ask students to elaborate, enabling deeper thinking processes that lead to a more enduring understanding of science concepts.

Examples of Fact First Questions

Ponce de Leon was an explorer. Why did European explorers come to Florida?

First Word-Last Word

First Word-Last Word is a variation of acrostics. Students construct statements about a concept or topic before and after instruction that begins with the designated letter of the alphabet. The acrostic format provides a structure for them to build their idea statements off different letters that make up the topic word.

First Word- Urban Last Word- Urban

U- U-

R- R-

B- B-

A- A-

N- N-

Fist to Five

Fist to Five asks students to indicate the extent of their understanding of a mathematical concept by holding up a closed fist (no understanding), one finger (very little understanding), and a range up to five fingers (understand completely and can easily explain it to someone else). Fist to Five provides simple feedback opportunity for all students in a class to indicate when they do not understand a concept or skill and need additional support for their learning.

Four corners

Corners are labeled: Strongly agree, agree, disagree and strongly disagree. Present a controversial text-based statement and have students go to the corner that best fits their opinion. Students then pair up to defend their opinion with text based evidence. The teacher circulates and records comments. Next, there can be a whole group discussion, where opinions are defended and/or students can return to their desks to write a brief defense of their opinion.

Frayer Model

Frayer Model graphically organizes prior knowledge about a concept into an operational definition, characteristics, examples, and non-examples. It provides students with the opportunity to clarify what they are think the concept is and communicate their understanding.

Give Me Five

Give Me Five is a simple, quick technique for inviting and valuing public reflection and

welcoming feedback from the students that will be used to design responsive instruction. Be sure to give them time for individuals to quietly reflect, perhaps through a quick write, before asking for five volunteers to share their reflection.

1. What was the most significant learning you had significant learning you had during today’s lesson?

2. How “in the zone” do you feel right now as far as understanding the concept?

3. How did today’s lesson help you better understand the concept?

4. What was the high point of this week’s activities on the concept?

5. How well do you think today’s science discussion worked in improving our understanding of the concept?

Human Scatterplots

Human Scatterplots is a quick, visual way for teacher and students to get an immediate

classroom snapshot of students’ thinking and the level of confidence student have in their ideas. This formative can be used at the beginning of a lesson or sequence of instruction to bring out students initial ideas and motivate them to want to further explore and discover ideas. A paper version can be used instead of a human graph.

Human Scatterplot for “What’s the Constitution?”

I Used to think… But now I know…

I Used to Think…But now I know is a self-assessment and reflection exercise that helps students recognize if and how their thinking has changed at the end of a sequence of instruction. An additional column can be added to include…And This Is How I Learned It to help students reflect on what part of their learning experiences helped them change or further develop their ideas.

I USED TO THINK… BUT NOW I KNOW…

KWL Variations

K-W-L is a general technique in which students describe what the Know about a topic, Want to know about a topic, and Learned about the topic. It provides an opportunity for

students to become engaged with a topic, particularly when asked what they would like to learn. K-W-L provides a self-assessment and reflection at the end, when students are asked to think about what they learned. The three phrases of K-W-L help students see the connections between what they already know, what they would like to find out, and what they learned as a result.

K-This what I

already KNOW

W-This is what I

WANT to find out

L-This is what I

LEARNED

Learning Goals Inventory (LGI)

Learning Goals Inventory (LGI) is a set of questions that relate to an identified learning

goal in a unit of instruction. Students are asked to “inventory” the area they feel they have prior knowledge about the learning goal. This requires them to think about what they already know in relation to the learning goal statement as well as when and how they may have learned about it. A key principle of learning is that students must know what the learning target is. The LGI can be given back to students at the end of the instructional unit as a self-assessment and reflection of their learning.

What do you think the learning goal is about?

List any concepts or ideas you are familiar with related to this learning goal:

List any terminology you know of that relates to this goal:

List any experiences you have had that may have helped you learn about the ideas in this learning goal:

Look Back

Look Back is a recount of what students learned over a given instructional period of time. It also provides students with an opportunity to look back on and summarize their learning. Asking the students “how they learned it” helps them think about their own learning. The information can be used to differentiate instruction for individual learners, based on their descriptions of what helped them learn.

What I Learned How I Learned it

Odd One Out

Odd One Out combines seemingly similar items and challenges students to choose which item in the group does not belong. Students are asked to justify their reasoning for selecting the item that does not fit with the others. Odd One Out provides an opportunity for students to access their knowledge to analyze relationships between items in a group.

Presidents of the United States: In each set, circle the Odd One Out and describe why it does not fit with the others.

Which Is the Odd One? Why It Is the Odd One Out

Paint The Picture

Paint the Picture visually depicts students’ thinking about an idea in social studies without using any annotations. This involves giving the students a question and asking them to design a visual representation that reveals their thinking and answers the questions. Paint the Picture provides an opportunity for students to organize and represent their thinking in a visual format. It allows every student a creative and unique way to make their thinking visible.

Draw an explorer’s exploration of the new lands.

Pass the Question

Pass the Question provides an opportunity for students to collaborate in activating their own ideas and examining other students’ thinking. Students begin by working together in pairs to respond to a question, partially finishing a response. When the time is up, they exchange their written, partially completed response with another pair to finish-modifying, adding to, or changing it as the pair deems necessary. Pairs then get together to give feedback to each other on why they did or did not change the responses as well as feedback on how well they felt the other pair’s thinking helped them pick up where the original pair’s response left off.

How do the physical features of the land and the climate affect the people who live in an area? What is the difference between urban and rural? What is the purpose of the Constitution of the United States? Why do we use money?

A Picture Tells a Thousand Words

A Picture Tells a Thousand Words, students are digitally photographed during an inquiry-based activity or investigation. They are given the photograph and asked to describe what they were doing and learning in the photo. Students write their description under the photograph. The images can be used to spark student discussions, explore new directions in inquiry, and probe their thinking as it relates to the moment the photograph was snapped. By asking students to annotate the photos with a description of what they were learning and the skills they were using, teachers can better understand what students are gaining from the inquiry experience and adjust it as needed.

Question Generating

Question Generating is a technique that switches roles from the teacher as the generator of questions to the student as the question generator. The ability to formulate good questions about a topic can indicate the extent to which a student understands ideas that underlie the topic. This technique can be used at the beginning of instruction in a topic to find out what students already know about the topic. Teachers can have students exchange or answer their own questions, revealing further information about the students’ ideas related to the topic.

Question Generating Stems:

Why does___?

How does___?

What if___?

What could be the reason for___?

What would happen if___?

How does___compare to___?

How could we find out if___?

Sticky Bars

Sticky Bars help students recognize that there is often a range of ideas students in the class have about a topic. Students are presented with a short answer or multiple-choice question. The answer is anonymously recorded on a Post-it note and passed in to the teacher. The teacher or a student arranges the notes on the wall or whiteboard, as a bar graph, representing the different student responses. Students then discuss the data and what they think the class needs to do in order to come to a common understanding.

Thinking Log

Thinking Logs help the teacher identify areas where the students are aware of their own learning successes or challenges. The information can be used to provide interventions for individual or groups of students as well as match students with peers who may provide learning support. Use impromptu moments during a learning experience or at the end of a lesson for students to record in their Thinking Logs. Students choose the thinking stem that would best describe their thinking at that moment. Provide a few minutes for students to write down their thoughts using the stem.

Think-Pair-Share

Think-Pair-Share combines thinking with communication. The teacher poses a question and gives individual students time to think about the question. Students then pair up with a partner to discuss their ideas. After pairs discuss, students share their ideas in a small-group or whole-class discussion. (Kagan)

This formative can be used during any stage of instruction. Using different pairing strategies will ensure that students have the opportunity to form pairs with students other than the ones who sit next to them in order to avoid having students always interact with the same group of peers.

3-2-1

3-2-1 provides a structured way for students to reflect on their learning. Students

respond in writing to three reflective prompts; providing six responses that describe what they learned from a lesson or instructional sequence. This technique scaffolds students’ reflections providing an opportunity to share their success in learning difficult or new concepts as well as recognize what was challenging for them.

Three key ideas I will remember

Two things I am still struggling with

One think that will help me tomorrow

Traffic Light Cards

Traffic Light Cards are a monitoring strategy that can be used at any time during instruction to help gauge student understanding. The colors indicate whether students have full, partial, or minimal understanding. Students are given three different-colored cards, asked to self-assess their understanding about the concept or skill they are learning, and hold up the card that best matches their understanding.

Green -“I understand this very well” Yellow-“I understand most of it but could use a little help” Red-“Help. I don’t get it.”

Two-Minute Paper

Two-Minute Paper is a quick and simple way to collect feedback from students about their learning at the end of an activity, field trip, lecture, video, or other type of learning experience. Write two questions on the board or on a chart that you want students to respond to. Give students two minutes to write and then collect their papers. After their responses have been analyzed, share the results with students the next day, letting them know how you are going to use the feedback they shared with you.

What was the most important thing you learned today?

What did you learn today that you didn’t know before class?

What important question remains unanswered for you?

What would help you learn better tomorrow?
