An important aspect of critical thinking is seeing connections. The more indepth the study, the easier it is for students to learn and remember the information.

Make connections to what was happening in the world of science and medicine at this time. What works of literature were written during or about this time period? Your lesson plan may be more specific in scope, focusing on a specific content area, skill, or learning strategy. If possible, provide Internet links to extend your lesson. Your lesson plan may be a review of a lesson plan that you found on the Internet.     Model Lessons to Preview Link to Harriet Tubman:  Sample Lesson Plan (Note:  This link is in the pdf format.)
