This lesson plan template provides the structure for a lesson on the causes of the Civil War. The terminal objective is for students to identify key events leading to the war by completing a cause-and-effect flow chart. The plan includes bellwork to define causes and effects, a 70-minute lecture using a PowerPoint on slavery and its economic and political impacts. Students will take notes and fill out a flow chart to summarize each discussed event. For closure, students will identify the two most influential events, one related to and one not related to slavery, and explain their reasoning in a short written response.
