Today we are examining five Reform Movements that took place during the 1800s. We’ve already discussed how the Industrial Revolution and Westward Expansion were changing the economy and physical landscapes of America. Now we will focus our attention on how the social fabric of the country was also changing. We will examine 5 reform (change) movements:
- Temperance Movement
- Prison Reform Movement
- Education Reform Movement
- Abolitionist Movement
- Women’s Rights Movement
Today in class you will complete a Thinking Map: tree, brace or bubble.
In your Thinking Map you will take notes on the goals and leaders of each movement, as presented in class. You can find the Reform Notes here: Reform Movements Notes
Make sure to ask questions along the way, and focus on the similarities between all five movements!
Let’s have a very good week, aye?
