1 HISTORY THROUGH OPPOSING EYES AMERICA AND PROTEST THE ART OF PROTESTING Grade level: Late elementary school through middle school Estimated time: Three class periods Topic: Tools of protest Subtopic: Historic protests Teacher background information Changes in our lives, communities, cities, nation, and the world often begin when people disagree. From town hall meetings and rallies to demonstrations and war (the gravest of all protest measures), protest is an important tool used to make change in our society. This lesson plan is best used while studying the rights and roles of American citizens and the structure of U.S. government. This is an introduction to how citizens can and have made changes in their lives, communities, and the government through various forms of protest. Key concepts Compare and contrast different methods of protest. Analyze what activities are involved in different methods of protest. Understand that protest is a part of our history. Key questions What tools can citizens use to make changes in their communities and in the government? How are certain tools different from others? Which tools are violent? Which are nonviolent? Which tools are effective in which situations? Goals of this lesson The lesson aims to provide students with a basic understanding of the different types of protest Americans have used throughout history. Students will learn the ways in which protest can produce change for the better or worse. Objectives Students will learn protest vocabulary, identify vocabulary words in visual images of protest, and study different forms of public protest. Materials Master copies of the vocabulary list and protest images are provided. 1. Vocabulary List (blank for students to complete) 2. Vocabulary List with definitions 2. Dictionaries 3. Protest Images: a. Pulling Down the Statue of George III b. The Bloody Massacre perpetrated in King Street, Boston, on March 5, 1770 c. Battle of Bunker s Hill For more History Lab activities, visit the educators section of the Chicago Historical Society s website at

Demonstration in Chicago during the late 1960s 4. Protest Crossword Puzzle (sample to be used as an extension activity) 5. Protest Crossword Puzzle answer key Procedures Day 1 Introduce this lesson to your students by telling them that it includes a very long homework assignment. Let the students complain about your decision. Direct them to make arguments that support their position (why you should not give the long assignment). List the students reasons on the board. When you are finished, explain that they have just held their own protest. Give students the protest vocabulary list. Note: You may want (but are not required) to teach the vocabulary in this lesson in groups to show the different levels of protest, for example: Levels of Protest Nonviolent protest Nonviolent protest Violent protest (informational) (active) (active) banner boycott mob leaflets/fliers chant rebellion petitions demonstration revolt political cartoons march revolution signs picket riot slogans rally war speeches Adapt the vocabulary list for your students by adding or deleting terms as appropriate. Make an overhead of the vocabulary list (without the definitions) for your students to copy or distribute the list as a handout. As a class, discuss each word on the vocabulary list. Allow time for students to fill in the definitions. Regroup as a class and determine the most accurate definitions and create a final list for the whole class to use. (Consult the vocabulary list with definitions for help.) Ask students to identify the protest tools (from their vocabulary) that they used when protesting the homework assignment. Also discuss how the methods of protest can work together across the categories listed above. Day 2 Explain to students that they are going to study images of real protest. As a preview, place the images around the room, and have students walk around and view the images while consulting their vocabulary lists. You may wish to add images from your social studies book or from current magazines or newspapers. After students have viewed all the images, choose a single image to discuss. Place a transparency of the image on the overhead projector or distribute a copy of the image to each student. Instruct students to study the image and to apply one vocabulary word from their vocabulary list to the image. As a class, compare and contrast the words students choose and discuss why those words apply to that image. Note the variety of words selected, and discuss why more than one word choice is correct. Day 3 Distribute a protest image (omit the one studied as a class on Day 2) to each student. It is okay to distribute duplicate images. Instruct students to study their image and write a short, one-paragraph description of what they see. To inform their writing, students should look closely at the details in the image and read the caption that goes with the image. Instruct them to use descriptive language in their paragraphs and to incorporate their protest vocabulary words. Students may also complete this activity in small groups. Allow time for discussion about each student s photograph. Ask students to read their descriptions aloud and present the reasoning for their description. Support each presentation by clarifying information and vocabulary as necessary. You may want to leave the pictures up in the classroom for a day or so while periodically quizzing students on the type of protest represented in each image.
3 Suggestions for student assessment Quiz students on protest vocabulary by asking them to write definitions or match the words to their definitions. Grade the descriptions of photographs based on incorporation of vocabulary words, accurate analysis, and detailed description. Extension activities 1. Have students expand on their initial descriptions by researching and writing a one-page paper about a protest image. Grade their work according to correct vocabulary usage and analysis of the cause and effect of the protest. Be sure the image is of a historically significant protest that students can accurately research. 2. To further study protest vocabulary, create a crossword or some type of word puzzle. Discovery s is an excellent website that will help you create your puzzle. You simply need to enter the vocabulary words and their definitions, and it will generate a puzzle for you. A sample puzzle and answer key are included at the end of this lesson.
