Need to use all the WHERETO’s. (3-5 pages) //

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">The classroom will be arranged in a perimeter style with the desks arranged on the outside of the room. This will allow for room when we do the hook and when I do the discussion.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">Teaching and Learning Sequence **

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;"> Students will understand that the Civil War impacted the foundations of the United States today. //MLR- Students understand major eras, major enduring themes, and historic influences in the history of Maine,the United States, and various regions of the world.// The reason why students need to learn this is because the Civil War had detrimental effects on the nation and prevention of repetition is critical. My hook is a video clip from the movie “Gettysburg” portraying a scene of Joshua Chamberlain. It is a very good representation of his personality.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">Where, What, Why, Hook, Tailors: Verbal, Logic, Visual, Interpersonal, Intrapersonal **

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">Students will know Joshua Chamberlain, Oliver Otis Howard (See Content Notes) During the lesson, students will have a word web graphic organizer to write four interesting or important facts about both of the men. I will continue our journey through the Civil War by focusing on two important generals from Maine, Joshua Chamberlain and Oliver Otis Howard. For every ten minutes of the presentation there will be a discussion question. They are then going to have a group share discussion to confirm that they understand. When the students group share, questions will be asked for the students to reflect upon and share first with each other and at the end, with the class, their question will be “Would the war have been won without Chamberlain and Howard?”

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;"> **Equip, Explore, Rethink, Tailors: Logic, Visual, Interpersonal**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">Student will be able to tell a story of Maine’s involvement in the Civil War. When the students pair share, questions will be asked for the students to reflect upon and share first with each other and at the end, with the class. During the lesson, there will be pair-share sessions where I will listen to what each group says and gather from their responses if they understand. They will also have feedback from the teacher on the product. Introduce to [|Photovisi], they will watch the tutorial. After they have seen the tutorial I will have them make a digital collage of their families and/or friends to try out the program.Working in groups of three or four, students will be using a software called Photovisi to create digital collages with pictures showing Maine's involvement in the Civil War. Students will present these collages and explain how each picture ties into Maine’s involvement. Most work on this project will be done in class.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;"> **Explore, Experience, Rethink, Revise, Refine, Tailors: Visual, Kinesthetic, Interpersonal, Intrapersonal, Verbal, Logic**

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">Students will self-assess using a rubric for their digital collage project. Their group will help them with this assessment process. I will also be walking around and giving feedback as students are working on the projects in class. The combination of this feedback will help students feel more confident of their work. Not many kids know that their home state made a major impact on the war itself, and arguably saved the Union at Gettysburg. Through this lesson, students will find out how their home state played a major role in this conflict. It also is a flexible project and allows students to express their creativity.

 * __<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">Content Notes __**
 * //<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">Joshua Chamberlain //**//<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">- A veritable icon of Civil War legend, Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain is best known for his heroic participation in the Battle of Gettysburg. Chamberlain and his regiment, the 20th Maine Infantry, gained notoriety for their desperate bayonet charge down Little Round Top on the Second Day of the Battle, a feat that figures prominently in Michael Shaara’s novel The Killer Angels and its movie adaptation, Gettysburg. This one deed, however, is only one facet of the man who later wrote “in great deeds something abides.” Shortly after Gettysburg, Chamberlain was given command of a brigade in the Fifth Corps and would retain it until the end of the war. Throughout the war, Chamberlain was wounded six times, most grievously at Petersburg in June 1864. Believing this wound to be mortal, Congress promoted Chamberlain to the rank of Brigadier General. Chamberlain, however, would survive the wound, and return to the front in time to play a pivotal role in the Appomattox Campaign. On April 12, 1865, Brigadier General Chamberlain received the Confederate surrender of arms. Rising to the occasion, the general ordered his men to salute their vanquished foes. //
 * //<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">Oliver Otis Howard //**//<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">-Known as “the Christian General,” Oliver Otis Howard is a unique figure in Civil War history. Despite lackluster performances by troops under his command, Howard’s reputation as an efficient and personally courageous officer would lead to command of an army by the war’s end. //
