Abigail Adams Letters To John Adams
I
will
also
use
a
fist
to
five
to
check
for
understanding
of
the
topics
and
information
being
covered.
Summative
Assessments
The
short
essay
following
the
assignment
will
help
show
what
information
they
have
gathered.
I
will
also
use
the
graphic
organizer
as
a
means
of
understanding
what
information
they
have
gathered.

and

Socratic
Circles.
Procedures
Opening:
o I
will
start
off
with
a
bell-ringer
asking
the
students
to
write
about
what
they
know
about
womens
rights
in
the
late
1700s
in
their
daily
journal.
Main
Activity:
o I
will
give
the
students
the
text
and
the
book
and
ask
them
to
complete
the
graphic
organizer
in
pairs.
The
graphic
organizer
will
lead
them
into
a
close
and
critical
reading
of
the
text.
o We
will
then
come
together
to
discuss
the
CCR
as
a
class.
o We
will
then
compare
the
Abigail
Adams
speech
and
its
themes
to
Elizabeth
Cady
Stantons
speech.
o Finally
I
will
show
Emma
Watsons
speech
to
the
United
Nations.
The
students
will
then
fill
out
the
rest
of
their
graphic
organizer.
Closing:
o Despite
it
typically
being
a
main
activity,
I
plan
on
having
the
Socratic
circles
be
a
summary
of
what
we
learned
from
the
text.
I
will
direct
the
conversation,
about
modern
womens
issues,
towards
using
the
letter
in
their
discussion.
o The
students
will
then
write
a
short
essay
comparing
the
themes
of
each
speech
and
discussing
where
they
believe
womens
rights
to
be
today.
Questions
to
ask:
o What
was
the
reason
Abigail
Williams
wrote
the
letter?
o Has
Abigail
Williams
wishes
transgressed
into
modern
day
society?
o What
are
common
themes
seen
throughout
each
speech?
o Why
do
you
think
we
are
still
reading
these
pieces
today?
