1 Introduction In 2014, the Shelby County Schools Board of Education adopted a set of ambitious, yet attainable goals for school and student performance. The District is committed to these goals, as further described in our strategic plan, Destination By 2025,! 80% of our students will graduate from high school college or career ready! 90% of students will graduate on time! 100% of our students who graduate college or career ready will enroll in a post-secondary opportunity. In order to achieve these ambitious goals, we must collectively work to provide our students with high-quality, College and Career Ready standards-aligned instruction. Acknowledging the need to develop competence in literacy and language as the foundations for all learning, Shelby County Schools developed the Comprehensive Literacy Improvement Plan (CLIP). The CLIP ensures a quality balanced literacy approach to instruction that results in high levels of literacy learning for all students, across content areas. Destination 2025 and the CLIP establish common goals and expectations for student learning across schools and are the underpinning for the development of the World History & Geography curriculum framework. Designed with the teacher in mind, this curriculum framework has a focus on integrating literacy skills and strategies with content standards. This document presents a framework for organizing instruction around the Tennessee State Standards for World History & Geography so that every student is able to meet or exceed their age specific requirements for college and career readiness. The standards define what is expected for this subject at this grade level and this framework provides guidelines and research-based approaches for implementing instruction to ensure students achieve their highest potentials. A standards-based curriculum, performance-based learning and assessments and high quality instruction are at the heart of this curriculum framework. Educators should use this guide and the standards as a road map for daily instruction. Carefully crafted curricular sequences and quality instructional resources enable teachers to devote more time and energy in delivering instruction and assessing the effectiveness of instruction for all learners in their classrooms, including those with special learning needs.!

2 How to Use the World History & Geography Curriculum Framework Our collective goal is to ensure our students graduate ready for college and career. This will require a comprehensive, integrated approach to literacy instruction that ensures that students become college and career ready readers, writers, and communicators. To achieve this, it is essential that literacy strategy and skill instruction be purposefully and appropriately planned and embedded within social studies. Students must employ essential literacy strategies that explicitly demonstrate the application of reading, writing, and thinking strategies to support learning in social studies. The integration of literacy and social studies is critical for student success. This curriculum map is designed to help teachers make effective decisions about what Social Studies content to teach and how to teach it so that, ultimately, our students can reach Destination To reach our collective student achievement goals, we know that teachers must change their instructional practice in alignment the with the three College and Career Ready shifts in instruction for ELA/Literacy. We should see these three shifts in all SCS literacy classrooms: (1) Regular practice with complex text and its academic language. (2) Reading, writing, and speaking grounded in evidence from text, both literary and informational. (3) Building knowledge through content-rich nonfiction. Throughout this curriculum map, you will see high-quality texts that students should be reading, as well as some resources and tasks to support you in ensuring that students are able to reach the demands of the standards in your classroom. In addition to the resources embedded in the map, there are some high-leverage resources around each of the three shifts that teachers should consistently access:!

3 The TNCore Literacy Standards The TNCore Literacy Standards (also known as the College and Career Ready Literacy Standards): Teachers can access the TNCore standards, which are featured throughout this curriculum map and represent college and career ready student learning at each respective grade level. Shift 1: Regular Practice with Complex Text and its Academic Language Student Achievement Partners Text Complexity Collection: the resources in this collection. Student Achievement Partners Academic Work Finder: Teachers can learn more about how to select complex texts (using quantitative, qualitative, and reader/task measures) using Teachers can copy and paste a text into this tool, which then generates the most significant Tier 2 academic vocabulary contained within the text.

6 THE ENLIGHTENMENT AND THE FOUNDING OF THE UNITED STATES STATE STANDARDS (3 weeks) W.1 Compare the major ideas of philosophers and their effects on the democratic revolutions in England, the United States, France, and Latin America including John Locke, Charles-Louis Montesquieu, Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Thomas Jefferson. W.2 Analyze the principles of the Magna Carta (1215), the English Bill of Rights (1689), and the American Declaration of Independence (1776) citing textual evidence. Additional Standards A.1 Describe how the American Revolution was perhaps the most successful colonial uprising in history. A.2 Analyze the factors that led to the American Revolution including Enlightenment ideas, colonial attitudes and actions and British acts. A.3 Explain the reasoning for the actions of both the British and the American colonists in the lead up to the Revolutionary War. A.4 Describe the major moments and battles of the Revolutionary War and how each affected the ultimate outcome. Lexington & Concord Dunmore s Proclamation Declaration of Independence Battle of Long Island Christmas crossing of the Delaware Battle of Brandywine Valley Forge Battle of Monmouth Battle of Newtown Pennsylvania Mutiny Battle of Yorktown Treaty of Paris A.5 Evaluate the effectiveness of the Articles of Confederation. A.6 Explain the need for the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. A.7 Describe the struggles the United States endured in trying to found the new nation and explain how they affected later events in the country s history. Primary Documents and Supporting Texts to Read: excerpts from The Magna Carta (1215), excerpts from The English Bill of Rights (1689), The American Declaration of Independence (1776) Primary Documents and Supporting Texts to Consider: excerpts from Mary Wollstonecraft s Vindication of the Rights of Women; excerpts from Montesquieu s Spirit of the Law; excerpts from Immanuel Kant s Critique of Pure Reason; excerpts from John Locke s Second Treatise of Government; excerpts from Jean Jacques Rousseau s The Social Contract; excerpt from George Washington s Farewell Address; excerpts from Thomas Paine s Common Sense BIG IDEAS The ideas of the Enlightenment inspired American colonists to seek for radical changes in government and society. RELEVANCE: The documents, individuals and philosophies of the Enlightenment had people in Europe and the American Colonies thinking about man as an individual, the rights that each person possesses and how they should be conveyed and governed. Such ideas broke from the past domination of the church in Europe and reflected more on science and what could be proven and reasoned. TNSS: W.1, W.2 The American Revolution took place as a result of several actions and reactions over the course of 20 years and not just a single event. RELEVANCE: Starting with debts that had accumulated from the French and Indian War, the British government in London, their agents in the colonies and various colonial leaders started down a collision course where economic freedom led the charge to political freedom and independence for the colonies. TNSS: A.1 Shelby County Schools 1 of 5!

7 Although they had the advantage of fighting closer to their own homes, the American Colonists were no match for the British army using the standard practices of war of that day. RELEVANCE: During the first part of the war General George Washington was driven from the field of battle in humiliating defeat. He and other military leaders had to learn how to use stealth and surprise to their advantage to implement a type of guerrilla warfare that was not commonly practiced in that day in order to defeat a well trained and well supplied British army. Washington was ultimately a success but there were several times throughout the years of the war when his leadership and the call of the Continental Congress to break free from England were called into serious question. TNSS: A.4 The American Revolution took place as a result of several actions and reactions over the course of 20 years and not just a single event. RELEVANCE: Starting with debts that had accumulated from the French and Indian War, the British government in London, their agents in the colonies and various colonial leaders started down a collision course where the desire for economic freedom led the charge to political freedom and independence for the colonies. TNSS: A.2, A.3 Once the war was over and the United States was established as an independent nation some of the most difficult challenges were just beginning. RELEVANCE: The war was a long a difficult struggle for the colonies but when it ended they had to decide how they would now form their country and govern it. Would it truly be a nation or just a set of independent states that were loosely tied together? Would they have a king, a parliament or what? They were heading into uncharted waters and took two tries to develop a government that would work and continues to do so today. Although it was not perfect, the ideas seem to be as close to that ideal as any humans have ever put into practice. The ability for people to choose their leaders, alter the government at the consent of the greater population and adjust to changing times and circumstances was a huge step forward. Yes, many were excluded from participation initially, ethnic minorities and women, and slavery was an accepted practice, but the great leap forward in the rights of human beings all over the world was set in motion by the new American government. TNSS: A.5, A.6, A.7 George Washington s election as president and later self removal after two terms in office was an unprecedented step in government. RELEVANCE: Washington was elected and likely could have been in office for the rest of his life if he chose to be but stepped away after two terms. The peaceful transition from leader to another seems routine for us today but this was a monumental change in the history of the world. Many nations in the world have based their governments and how they operate on the process designed and pioneered by our Founding Fathers. TNSS: A.6, A.7 GUIDING QUESTIONS How were major political reforms and revolutions of the 1700s and early 1800s influenced by Enlightenment thinkers? Were the American colonists justified in their reasoning for breaking away from British rule or did they seek only policies that benefitted them economically and were not applied to the rest of the people governed by England at that time? What were the causes of the American Revolution? How was war different at that time when compared to more recent times or today? What strategies did the colonists have to employ to win the war? What challenges did the colonists face during the war? What challenges did the British face during the war? What would have happened to the colonial political leaders of the Revolution if they had not won? What difficulties did the new American nation encounter as they set up their new country and government?

I shall then confidently uphold the cause of humanity before the wise men who invite me to do so, and shall not be dissatisfied if I acquit myself in a manner worthy of my subject and of my judges. I conceive that there are two kinds of inequality among the human species; one, which I call natural or physical, because it is established by nature, and consists in a difference of age, health, bodily strength, and the qualities of the mind or of the soul: and another, which may be called moral or political inequality, because it depends on a kind of convention, and is established, or at least authorized by the consent of men. This latter consists of the different privileges, which some men enjoy to the prejudice of others; such as that of being more rich, more honored, more powerful or even in a position to exact obedience. It is useless to ask what is the source of natural inequality, because that question is answered by the simple definition of the word. Again, it is still more useless to inquire whether there is any essential connections between the two inequalities; for this would be only asking, in other words, whether those who command are necessarily better than those who obey, and if strength of body or of mind, wisdom or virtue are always found in particular individuals, in proportion to their power or wealth: a question fit perhaps to be discussed by slaves in the hearing of their masters, but highly unbecoming to reasonable and free men in search of the truth. Others have spoken of the natural right of every man to keep what belongs to him, without explaining what they meant by belongs.

11 THE AGE OF REVOLUTION STATE STANDARDS (3 weeks) W.1 Compare the major ideas of philosophers and their effects on the democratic revolutions in France and Latin America including John Locke, Charles-Louis Montesquieu, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Simón Bolívar, Toussaint L Ouverture and Thomas Jefferson. W.2 Analyze the principles of the French Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen (1789) citing textual evidence. W.3 Conduct a short research project summarizing the important causes and events of the French Revolution including Enlightenment political thought, comparison to the American Revolution, economic troubles, rising middle class, government corruption and incompetence, Estates General, storming of the Bastille, execution of Louis XVI, the Terror and the rise and fall of Napoléon. W.4 Draw evidence from informational texts to explain how the ideology of the French Revolution led France to evolve from a constitutional monarchy to democratic despotism to the Napoleonic Empire. W.5 Describe how nationalism spread across Europe with Napoléon then repressed for a generation under the Congress of Vienna and Concert of Europe until the Revolutions of Primary Documents and Supporting Texts to Read: excerpts from The French Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen (1789) Primary Documents and Supporting Texts to Consider: excerpts from Charles Dickens Tales of Two Cities; excerpts from Olympe de Gouges Declaration of the Rights of Woman and of the Citizen ; excerpt from Jacques Necker Account to the King ; excerpt from Emmanuel- Joseph Sieyes What is the Third Estate? ; the French National Anthem La Marseillaise ; excerpts from the National Assembly s Tennis Court Oath BIG IDEAS The example of the newly formed United States of America helped inspire other nations, particularly in the Western Hemisphere, to think about breaking ties with their European monarchs. Relevance: The American Revolution inspired other leaders the day to take a similar gamble and use distance and will to revolt against European monarchs who had never even seen the colonies the claimed to rule. The United States Constitution is the model for almost every free government in the world today. Those same ideals and American successes still inspire people around the globe today as the seek more freedom and self government. TNSS: W.1 The beginning of the French Revolution of 1789, along with each phase and faction involved, represents a set of beliefs and group and class interests that were to become common in most world societies ever since. Relevance: The French Revolution empowered citizens in Europe to pursue change and it became a significant factor in ending economic, political and social oppression around the world. Included in this change was the end of feudalism in Europe and the decline of Catholic Church s power and influence. A new political spectrum emerged, radicals, moderates, and conservatives fought for control in France and abroad. TNSS: W.3, W.4 The decision makers at the Congress of Vienna had the goal of restoring peace after the French Revolution and the wars with Napoleon. These leaders were able to create a lasting peace in Europe that lasted until Relevance: The Congress of Vienna and the Concert of Europe serves as a foundation for the United Nations, which is built on the same principle of keeping and restoring peace around the globe. Despite the peace between countries, the growth of modern nationalism emerged as citizens grappled with governments for control of their lives. This renewed interest in liberty and freedom led to the redrawing and establishment of new political borders, especially in Europe. TNSS: W.5 Shelby County Schools 1 of 4!

15 THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION STATE STANDARDS (3 weeks) W.6 Describe the growth of population, rural to urban migration and growth of cities. W.7 Explain the connections among natural resources, entrepreneurship, labor and capital in an industrial economy including the reasons why the Industrial Revolution began in England. W.8 Write an informative piece analyzing the emergence of capitalism as a dominant economic pattern and the responses to it, including Utopianism, Social Democracy, Socialism and Communism, Adam Smith, Robert Owen and Karl Marx. W.9 Evaluate multiple sources presented in diverse media or other formats describing the emergence of Romanticism in art and literature including the poetry of William Blake and William Wordsworth, social criticism including the novels of Charles Dickens and the move away from Classicism in Europe. W.10 Explain how scientific and technological changes and new forms of energy brought about massive social, economic, and cultural demographic changes including the inventions and discoveries of James Watt, Eli Whitney, Henry Bessemer, Louis Pasteur and Thomas Edison. W.11 Analyze the evolution of work and labor including the work of William Wilberforce and the demise of the slave trade, problems caused by harsh working conditions, and the effect of immigration, mining and manufacturing, division of labor, the union movement and the impact of social and political reform. W.12 Participate effectively in collaborative discussions explaining the vast increases in productivity and wealth, growth of a middle class and general rise in the standard of living and life span. Primary Documents and Supporting Texts to Consider: excerpts from the abolitionist writings and speeches of William Wilberforce; excerpts from John Stuart Mill s On Liberty; excerpts from Karl Marx s and Frederick Engel s Communist Manifesto ; excerpts from Adam Smith s Wealth of Nations; excerpts from Thomas Malthus Essay on Principle of Population ; excerpts from Malthus and Ricardo s Iron Law of Wages ; excerpt from Robert Owen s A New View of Society ; excerpts from Elizabeth s Gaskell s Mary Barton BIG IDEAS Great Britain possessed a combination of natural resources, available capital and the political support that encouraged economic growth and innovations. Relevance: Combining these and other factors allowed Great Britain to transition from an agrarian society to an industrial leader. Along with Britain s lead in the industrial revolution emerged the rise of the factory system, which is common in today s industrialized nations. These factors allowed for new technologies and energy resources to take root and flourish. TNSS: W.7 New ways of thinking regarding economics and government emerged because of the wants and needs of business leaders and politicians. Relevance: Due to the industrial growth, new political systems, such as communism and socialism, arose that emphasized the power of the working class. As time has progressed few nations remained committed to communism while nearly every government and economic system today include elements of capitalism. TNSS: W.8 Industrial production increased dramatically during the 1800s, bringing wealth and power to governments and capitalists. Industrialization also had various effects on society, including the daily living and working conditions of the common people. Relevance: The Industrial Revolution changed the face of nations, giving rise to urban centers and population expansion. It created a specialized and interdependent economic life and made the urban worker dependent on the will of the employer. The Industrial Revolution also provided an improvement in living standards that remains a primary goal of less developed nations. TNSS: W.7, W.10, W.11, W.12 Because of specialization of labor practices, industrialization gave rise to sweeping increases in production capacity and affected the use of Shelby County Schools 1 of 6!

16 machines, food production, medicine, housing and clothing. Industrial centers were in cities or had cities grow around them causing population distribution and density changes. Relevance: The major trade off of industrialization was increased access to goods coupled with the loss of self sufficiency. Factory workers no longer produced form themselves but received a wage for their labor and had to purchase the necessities of life instead of producing the majority of them within the household. Today, less than 5% of the world's population is self sufficient and virtually the entire world depends on someone else to 'make' the things they need to survive. TNSS: W.6, W.11, W.12 GUIDING QUESTIONS How did life change for the average human being due to the Industrial Revolution? What shifts in population occurred because of the Industrial Revolution? What factors allowed Britain to lead the way in the Industrial Revolution? Which of the key factors was the most influential in Britain leading the way in the Industrial Revolution?

Water from the Merrimack River was diverted into canals which took it to the mills. The water was dumped onto waterwheels causing them to spin. The wheels were connected to machines by shafts, belts and pulleys. Working Conditions Long hours, dangerous equipment and deafening noise from the machinery were all a part of life in the mills. Worst of all, weave rooms were unventilated. Many workers developed life-threatening diseases from breathing in cotton dust. Mill Girls Factory owners recruited young women from throughout New England to work in the mills. These mill girls worked long hours but many found a more independent and exciting lifestyle than they had known on the farm. Labor Reform As more and more cotton mills sprang up along the waterways of New England pay and working conditions deteriorated. Workers organized and fought back. There were turnouts or strikes in the 1830s and a long struggle after 1840 to shorten the work day to ten hours. Source: A New England Cotton Mill poster, published by Tsongas Industrial History Center, 2005, Lowell, Massachusetts Excerpt from a letter from Mary Paul to her father: November 5, 1848 Lowell, Massachusetts Dear Father, Doubtless you have been looking for a letter from me all the past week. I would have written but wished to find whether I should be able to stand it - to do the work that I am now doing.... It is very hard indeed and sometimes I think I shall not be able to endure it. I never worked so hard in my life but perhaps I shall get used to it. I shall try hard to do so for there is no other work that I can do unless I spin and that I shall not undertake on any account. I presume you have heard before this that the wages are to be reduced on the 20th of this month. It is true and there seems to be a good deal of excitement on the subject but I cannot tell what will be the consequence. The companies pretend they are losing immense sums every day and therefore the are obliged to lessen the wages, but this seems perfectly absurd to me for they are constantly making repairs and it seems to me they that this would not be if there were really danger of their being obliged to stop the mills....

20 Excerpt from Wages, Labor and Captial, by Karl Marx, 1847: Wages, therefore, are not a share of the worker in the commodities produced by himself. Wages are that part of already existing commodities with which the capitalist buys a certain amount of productive labor-power. Consequently, labor-power is a commodity which its possessor, the wage-worker, sells to the capitalist. Why does he sell it? It is in order to live. But the putting of labor-power into action i.e., the work is the active expression of the laborer's own life. And this life activity he sells to another person in order to secure the necessary means of life. His life-activity, therefore, is but a means of securing his own existence. He works that he may keep alive. He does not count the labor itself as a part of his life; it is rather a sacrifice of his life. It is a commodity that he has auctioned off to another. The product of his activity, therefore, is not the aim of his activity.... But the worker, whose only source of income is the sale of his labor-power, cannot leave the whole class of buyers unless he gives up his own existence. He does not belong to this or that capitalist, but to the capitalist class; and it is for him to find his man, to find a buyer in this capitalist class.
