1 StudySync Lesson Plan Declaration of Sentiments Objectives 1. Engage students in the language and themes of Declaration of Sentiments, written by the attendees of the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848, so that they are prepared to discuss and write about the tract. 2. Practice and reinforce the following Grades ELA Common Core Standards for reading, writing, and speaking and listening: Time READING: HISTORY/SOCIAL STUDIES RH WRITING: HISTORY/SOCIAL STUDIES WHST , 4-10 SPEAKING AND LISTENING SL minutes (with an additional 200 minutes of extension possibilities) Materials SyncTV Premium Lesson on the Declaration of Sentiments by the Seneca Falls Convention Overview This StudySync lesson presents a manifesto written by the attendees of the Seneca Falls Convention in Borrowing from the structure and language of the Declaration on Independence, this document outlines the expectations of rights held by women as well as the systematic undermining ( usurpations ) of those rights on the part of men. Using the lesson plan below will help students understand this text and the historical background of women s suffrage and similar Civil Rights movements. Students will also be prepared to read and write textually rooted responses consistent with the Common Core standards for Grades Background (10 minutes) 1. Watch the Preview (SL ). As a group, watch the video preview of the premium lesson. After viewing, use the following questions to spur a discussion: a. What do you know about the time period in which the Declaration of Sentiments Page 1
2 was written? In addition to what you heard in the preview, what historical information do you need to keep in mind to better understand the text? b. What image or images stand out to you? How do the images from this preview relate to other Civil Rights movements you may have studied? c. Had you heard of the Declaration of Sentiments before watching this video? What do you know about the women s suffrage movement as a whole? Extension (additional 60 minutes) d. Research and Write (WHST ). Use this History Channel link 50th-anniversary-of-19th-amendment-adoption as an introduction to the women s suffrage movement. This live recording was made in 1970 to celebrate 50 years of women s right to vote in America. Still that means there were more than 70 years between the Declaration of Sentiments and the 19 th Amendment. Ask students to research and produce a timeline explaining what happened in the 72 years between the Seneca Falls Convention and the 19 th Amendment s passage. Engaging the Text (130 minutes) 2. Read the Text (30 minutes) a. Read and Annotate (RH ). Have students read and annotate the introduction and excerpt from the Declaration of Sentiments. If students are completing as a homework assignment, ask them to write any questions they have into the annotation tool these questions are visible to you after the students submit their writing assignments or beforehand if you use the Mimic function to access the students accounts. b. Discuss (SL , 3). Have students get into small groups or pairs and briefly discuss the questions and inferences they had while reading. As a class, discuss the following: How did the images in the preview affect your understanding of the text? What other images came to mind as you read the excerpt? What words were uncommon to you? What meanings did you infer? Extension (additional 20 minutes) c. Listen and Discuss (SL ). As a class, listen to the audio reading of the text. Ask students to share how their understanding of the text changed after listening. What additional images came to mind? What words did the author use to develop the setting? d. Comprehend (RH ) Have students complete the multiple-choice questions. Collect papers or discuss answers as a class. 3. Watch SyncTV (30 minutes) a. Watch. Either watch the SyncTV discussion as a class or ask students to watch it on their individual computers. Page 2
3 b. Discuss (SL ). After watching the model discussion, have a conversation with the class about the ideas discussed in the SyncTV episode. What new thoughts do they have after hearing the students' discussion? Next, divide students into small groups (3-4 students). Move around the room monitoring groups as students follow the SyncTV episode as a model to discuss some of the following questions: 1. Why would the Seneca Fall Convention choose to mimic the language and structure of the Declaration of Independence in its document about women s rights? What effects both positive and negative does this have on the Declaration of Sentiments? 2. How does the "Declaration of Sentiments" modify and subvert the text of the passage it references from the "Declaration of Independence"? Analyze how these subtle but important changes contribute to the overall meaning of the text. How is it similar and how is it different? 3. In the text, the Seneca Falls Convention authors cite a list of 15 injustices enacted by men against women. Evaluate the validity of the first 5 of these claims. 4. In the text, the Seneca Falls Convention authors cite a list of 15 injustices enacted by men against women. Evaluate the validity of the second 5 of these claims. 5. In the text, the Seneca Falls Convention authors cite a list of 15 injustices enacted by men against women. Evaluate the validity of the final 5 of these claims. 6. Which of these aforementioned injustices are still relevant today? Has society overcome these injustices, or is there still more progress to be made? Why/why not? 7. Do you think the Declaration of Sentiments was the most effective way to bring women s rights issues to greater light in America? What would some other possibilities have been? How does this document stack up against the actions taken during the Civil Rights movement by African Americans 100 years later? Extension (additional 60 minutes) c. Write (WHST ). Use the StudySync assignment creation tool to create a Writing assignment that asks students to address the following prompt: 1. It is easy for one to look back into history and make judgments about a society's lifestyle and decisions. Think about how people of the future might view our society as a whole. What would they say about our lifestyles or decisions? Is there an issue in today s society that they will look back on and believe we were slow to react to? Are Civil Rights still an issue in modern America? Write an essay using your opinions and examples from the text and other sources to support your ideas. Be prepared to share your ideas with the class. Page 3
4 4. Think (10 minutes) a. Respond (W , 4). Ask students to read the Think questions, watch the corresponding video clips, and respond to the questions, either in class or for homework. 5. Write (60 minutes) a. Discuss (SL ). Read the prompt you have chosen for students, and then solicit questions regarding the prompt or the assignment expectations. Whichever prompt you have chosen, make sure you are clear about the assignment expectations and the rubric by which you and the other students will be evaluating them. b. Organize (RH , 10 and WHST , 5). Ask students to go back and annotate the text with the prompt in mind. They should be organizing their thoughts and the points they ll address in their writing as they make annotations. If you ve worked on outlining or other organizational tools for writing, this is a good place to apply them. c. Write (WHST , 4-6, 8-10). Have students go through the writing process of planning, revising, editing, and publishing their writing responses. d. Review (WHST ). Use the StudySync Review feature to have students complete one to two evaluations of their peers work based on your chosen review rubric. Have the students look at and reflect upon the peer evaluations of their own writing. What might you do differently in a revision? How might you strengthen the writing and the ideas? Extension (additional 60 minutes) e. Write (WHST , 4-6, 8-10). For homework, have students write an essay using one of the prompts you did not choose to do in class. Students should publish their responses online. f. Self-Assessment (WHST ). Use the StudySync assignment creation tool to create a "Writing" assignment that asks students to address the following prompt. 1. Reread one of your essays and the reviews of one of your essays on Declaration of Sentiments. After reading these reviews, what do you believe were the biggest strengths of your essay? What were the biggest weaknesses? If you were to go back and write this essay again, what would you change about your writing process? How has writing this essay made you a better writer? Page 4
