Daily life in colonial America revolved around family and farming. Families lived and worked on small farms, with fathers leading the household and mothers taking care of domestic duties like gardening, cooking, and childrearing. Children started working at young ages to help their families; sons typically took up their fathers' trades while daughters assisted their mothers. Education was limited, usually just teaching boys basic reading; girls' education was usually just what parents provided, and indentured servants and slaves had little to no access to schools. People married young, around 18-20, and women commonly had 7-10 children, making childbirth a leading cause of death.

American Industrial Revolution[2]
The document summarizes key aspects of the American Industrial Revolution from 1791-1860. It discusses major inventors and inventions that drove the shift from an agricultural to manufacturing economy. These included Samuel Slater establishing the first successful cotton spinning factory, Eli Whitney inventing the cotton gin and interchangeable parts, and Howe and Singer inventing the sewing machine. The Industrial Revolution moved many manufacturing tasks to factories, increased production speeds, and helped the Union win the Civil War due to its industrial advantages over the South.
The 2nd continental congress
The 2nd Continental Congress met in May 1775 in Philadelphia to govern the colonies and deal with Great Britain, as the colonies needed leadership after clashes began. It established the Continental Army under George Washington to better train colonial soldiers against the British, and took on roles like running the postal service and printing money. While some delegates still hoped to remain with Britain, others like John Adams pushed for independence, though an Olive Branch Petition to peacefully resolve taxes instead provoked more conflict.
Andrew jackson
The document summarizes key events during Andrew Jackson's presidency and the rise of Jacksonian democracy. It describes how Jackson appealed to common workers and farmers in his campaigns. His supporters saw him as representing the interests of average citizens over the wealthy elite. As president, Jackson fired many government officials and replaced them with political allies, establishing the spoils system. He also signed the Indian Removal Act, leading to the forced relocation of Native Americans and the tragic Trail of Tears. Sectional divisions between North and South grew over tariffs and states' rights during Jackson's two terms.
Causes of the War of 1812
The War of 1812 had several causes, including American expansion into Native American lands which Britain encouraged, tensions between the U.S., Britain, and France during the Napoleonic Wars that led to attacks on American merchant ships and impressment of U.S. sailors, and economic sanctions like the Embargo Act of 1807 that failed to stop the attacks but hurt the American economy. Frustrated by Britain's continued raids and impressment of sailors, President Madison officially led the U.S. into war against Britain in 1812 despite the British no longer wanting war with America.
Thomas jefferson
Thomas Jefferson defeats John Adams in the 1800 presidential election, but ties with Aaron Burr which leads to the House of Representatives choosing Jefferson as president, revealing a flaw in the electoral process. As president, Jefferson simplifies the presidency by reducing the military and taxes while expanding U.S. territory through the Louisiana Purchase which doubles the size of the country. Jefferson also establishes judicial review and the Supreme Court's ability to declare laws unconstitutional through the Marbury v. Madison case.
The era of good feelings
This document summarizes key events and developments during the Era of Good Feelings in the United States after the War of 1812. There was a surge in American nationalism and unity as the lone political party grew in popularity. Infrastructure improvements like the Erie Canal connected regions and spurred economic growth. The Supreme Court rulings in Gibbons v. Ogden and McCulloch v. Maryland strengthened federal power over interstate commerce and banking. Westward expansion continued with the acquisition of Florida and the Missouri Compromise.
Soc studies #18 presidency of george washington
George Washington was unanimously elected the first President of the United States in 1789. As President, Washington established important precedents for the office and helped shape the new government. Key accomplishments included creating the cabinet and executive branch, establishing the federal court system, and moving the capital to Philadelphia then to Washington D.C. through compromises. Washington also had to navigate tensions between Secretary of Treasury Alexander Hamilton, who favored a strong federal government, and Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson, who favored states' rights.
American Revolutionary War
The document summarizes key events of the American Revolutionary War between Britain and the colonies:
1) Growing tensions over new taxes like the Stamp Act and Townshend Acts led to protests like the Boston Tea Party and Intolerable Acts in response.
2) The First Continental Congress united the colonies in opposition to Britain and the Second Continental Congress established the Continental Army under George Washington.
3) A major turning point was the American victory over British forces at the Battle of Saratoga in 1777, which led France to form an alliance with the Americans against Britain.

The Market Revolution
By the 1850s, the market revolution had transformed the United States into a highly productive industrial nation. Innovations in transportation like canals, railroads, and steamships expanded markets and allowed for widespread trade. As markets grew, manufacturing expanded and many workers left rural farms for urban factory jobs. While economic growth benefited entrepreneurs, workers often faced poor conditions, low pay, and discrimination. They began organizing unions to demand better treatment, though met resistance from employers and courts.
The Jackson Era
The political system changed under President Andrew Jackson (1829-1837) as he expanded democracy. Jackson opposed the national bank and vetoed its recharter, believing it helped elites. He also increased direct election of government officials and gave jobs to his supporters, establishing the spoils system. However, these changes increased sectional tensions between North and South over states' rights and the tariff that threatened the Union.
Washington's Presidency
George Washington served as the first President of the United States and helped establish the structure and powers of the executive branch. He appointed the first Cabinet, including Alexander Hamilton as Secretary of Treasury and Thomas Jefferson as Secretary of State. Hamilton and Jefferson disagreed over the interpretation of Congressional authority, with Hamilton favoring a loose interpretation allowing more federal power and Jefferson preferring a strict interpretation reserving more powers for states. Washington's presidency established many precedents and saw the emergence of the first political parties in the United States.
Civil War - A Summary for Grades 5-8
The Civil War was fought between 1861 and 1865 and caused by economic and social differences between the North and South, disputes over states' rights versus federal authority, and the fight over the expansion of slavery. The war began when Confederate forces opened fire on Fort Sumter in South Carolina in April 1861 after South Carolina and other Southern states seceded from the United States. Major battles included Bull Run, Shiloh, Antietam, and Gettysburg, which was the bloodiest single day of the war with over 22,000 casualties in a single day. The Union prevailed after General Ulysses S. Grant utilized his superior resources and Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing slaves in Confederate states. Over 6

The gilded age capital vs labor
This document discusses the changing labor landscape in the late 19th century United States. It provides information on child labor, labor unions like the Knights of Labor and American Federation of Labor, and notable labor disputes such as the Haymarket Riot, the Homestead Steel Strike, and the Pullman Strike of 1894. Key events and figures in the labor movement are summarized, along with the goals of different unions and tactics used by both management and labor groups in disputes over working conditions and pay.
Monroe presidency
After the War of 1812, Americans began feeling a stronger sense of national unity and identity. The Era of Good Feelings emerged as political divisions lessened. John C. Calhoun and Henry Clay proposed the American System to strengthen the economy through tariffs and infrastructure projects like roads and canals. The Erie Canal's success spurred further canal construction and economic growth. Meanwhile, Latin American countries like Mexico gained independence from Spain, opening new trade opportunities, while the U.S. acquired Florida through treaty and established the Monroe Doctrine barring future European colonization in the Americas.
The worlds of north and south
The document discusses the rise of cotton production and the cotton kingdom in the American South between 1820-1860. It summarizes that Eli Whitney's invention of the cotton gin made growing cotton highly profitable, leading to a boom in cotton planting and increased demand for slave labor. As cotton depleted the soil, plantations expanded westward across the South. This established an agricultural economy reliant on slave labor, with little industrial development compared to the North.
John adams presidency ppt
This document summarizes key events during John Adams' presidency from 1796-1800, including his election over Alexander Hamilton, the XYZ Affair which damaged US-French relations, the passage of the Alien and Sedition Acts to suppress Republicans, and the Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions opposing the Sedition Act as unconstitutional. Tensions increased between the Federalist and Republican parties during Adams' single term as he struggled to unite the Federalists while facing foreign policy challenges.
Great Compromise
The document discusses the Virginia and New Jersey Plans debated at the Constitutional Convention and their compromise. The Virginia Plan proposed three branches of government and two houses in Congress based on state population, worrying small states. The New Jersey Plan kept three branches but a single-house Congress with each state getting one vote. The Great Compromise created a bicameral legislature with the House based on population and the Senate giving two seats to each state.
John Brown
John Brown led a raid on a federal armory in Harpers Ferry, Virginia in 1859 hoping to start a slave revolt. He was captured along with 21 men, including 5 black men, and was later hanged for his actions. The raid gained significant attention as it showed the divide between abolitionists in the North and pro-slavery advocates in the South. Events like the Kansas-Nebraska Act and Dred Scott decision inflamed tensions by renewing hopes of expanding slavery and ruling that blacks could not be citizens, pushing Brown and others to take action. His raid was seen as a catalyst for the eventual Civil War as it demonstrated the North was willing to use force and increased political tensions between free and slave states.
The Middle Colonies
The Middle Colonies were founded in the mid-1600s and were located between New England and the Southern colonies. The Dutch originally founded New York as New Netherland, but it came under English control in 1664. New Jersey was established as a proprietary colony by the Duke of York in the 1660s. Pennsylvania was founded by William Penn in 1682 as a place for Quakers to worship freely. The Middle Colonies had a diverse population and economies focused on farming and trade.
Causes of the American Revolution
The document summarizes several acts passed by the British Parliament between 1763 and 1774 that taxed and restricted the American colonies, angering colonists and leading to increased unrest and organization of protests. It describes the Proclamation of 1763 that drew a boundary line to restrict westward expansion, the Sugar Act of 1764 that taxed imports without colonial representation. Further acts like the Stamp Act of 1765 and Townshend Acts of 1767 imposed additional taxes, while the Quartering Acts of 1765 required colonists to house British soldiers. Acts like the Intolerable Acts of 1774 punished the Boston Tea Party, increasing colonial unity in opposition to British policies.
The War Of 1812
The War of 1812 was caused by American grievances against Britain related to impressment and attacks on American ships. Known as the War Hawks, a group in Congress pushed for war. They were opposed by Native American leader Tecumseh, who sought an alliance with Britain. Though the U.S. military was unprepared, battles were fought in Canada and at sea. In 1814, British forces burned Washington D.C., but American forces later won a key victory at the Battle of New Orleans under General Andrew Jackson after the war had ended. The war was concluded in 1815 with the signing of the Treaty of Ghent.
THE FIRST CONTINENTAL CONGRESS
The First Continental Congress met in Philadelphia from September 5 to October 26, 1774. Delegates from 12 of the 13 colonies attended except Georgia. They were united in showing a combined authority to Great Britain. The Congress drafted a statement of grievances against 13 Acts of Parliament passed since 1763 that violated colonial rights based on natural law and English principles. They voted to boycott British goods and trade and endorsed the Suffolk Resolves prepared in Massachusetts that called for arming militias against the British, foreshadowing the coming war in the spring.

The tea act
The Tea Act gave the East India Tea Company exclusive rights to sell tea in the colonies in order to help the struggling company, but colonists opposed it because it maintained a tax on tea from previous acts and threatened ongoing boycott efforts. In protest, Sons of Liberty members dumped tea cargo from British ships into Boston Harbor, leading Parliament to pass the Intolerable Acts punishing Boston by closing its port.
US 2111 American Revolution
The document summarizes the key events of the American Revolutionary War and early United States history from 1765-1783. It discusses the growing tensions between British colonies and the colonial government, key battles of the Revolutionary War, French involvement in 1778 that turned the conflict into an international war, the American victory at Yorktown in 1781, and the adoption of the Articles of Confederation in 1777 which established the first national government of the US but had significant weaknesses.
JIM CROW LAW
The Jim Crow laws established racial segregation and discrimination in the Southern United States between 1882 and 1968, prohibiting African Americans from interacting with whites in public places, using the same transportation, or attending the same schools. The laws negatively impacted African Americans by denying them privileges, instilling constant fear, and leading to poorer living conditions, less education, and widespread discrimination. The Jim Crow system developed from a combination of historical factors, racial beliefs of the time, and a snowball effect that reinforced further discrimination.
History of the study of child development
Parenting styles have evolved significantly over time. Historically, children were viewed as the property of their parents and expected to obey without question. As views changed, the authoritarian style gave way to authoritative and permissive approaches that consider children's input and independence. Today, children are seen as individuals deserving nurturing environments to grow and learn at their own pace through play and exploration.
Colonial maryland
Maryland was founded in 1632 when King Charles I gave the land to George Calvert, Lord Baltimore. It was established to provide religious freedom for English Catholics fleeing persecution. The colonial assembly established self-government and rejected laws sent by Lord Baltimore. While the Church of England was the official religion, Maryland offered religious toleration for Catholics. Family, farming, and religion were central to colonial life in Maryland. Education became increasingly important for both boys and girls during this period.

Ms. margerate tryon information
Margaret Tryon was the daughter of Governor William Tryon of North Carolina. She was born in England in 1761 and moved with her family to North Carolina when she was 3 years old. As the governor's daughter, Margaret had a privileged life compared to most colonial children, who had to take on adult responsibilities like chores from a young age to help their families survive. While some colonial children enjoyed activities like games and crafts in their limited free time, their days generally involved hard work rather than leisure.
Colonial Life-children, school, and medicine
Colonial children received basic education through hornbooks, primers, and one-room schoolhouses. Their days consisted of school, chores, and play with few toys. Manners and obedience were strictly enforced. Society was divided into classes like gentry, merchants, farmers, slaves. Healthcare was rudimentary, relying on home remedies, bloodletting, and apothecaries. Disease and accidents resulted in high infant mortality and short life expectancy.
Ancient civilizations
Education in ancient civilizations varied depending on gender and social class. Boys typically received more formal schooling than girls and were taught skills related to their father's occupation. For wealthy families, both boys and girls could receive private tutoring to learn subjects like reading, writing, and mathematics. In modern Canada, every child receives equal access to education regardless of gender.

Colonial LIfe-Medicine and Education
Colonial children's education varied depending on social class. Wealthy children had private tutors while poorer children received little schooling. The typical school day for colonial children included lessons using a hornbook and primer, as well as completing chores. After school or by age 10, most children began apprenticeships. Medical treatments during colonial times relied heavily on home remedies rather than doctors, and disease and malnutrition led to high mortality rates, especially among infants and young children.
Ch20 Sections 1 & 2 Notes
Marriage and family life changed in Europe between the 18th and 19th centuries. Early marriage was uncommon before 1750, with most people marrying around age 27. Illegitimate births increased dramatically between 1750-1850 as more young people had premarital sex and fewer married after pregnancy. Attitudes toward children also evolved - they were often neglected prior to the Enlightenment, but critics like Rousseau later advocated for more love and understanding of children. Formal education expanded for the upper classes by the 16th century, and then for common people in the 17th-18th centuries, led by Protestant reforms in places like Prussia and Scotland. Literacy and popular literature increased during this period.
Victorian children james
Poor children during the Victorian era often lived in poverty with little access to education or toys, and some were forced to work from a young age to support their families. Wealthy children by comparison attended private schools, had access to a variety of toys, and did not need to work. The workhouse was a grim place where orphans and disabled children were sent to live and work in exchange for basic necessities. Over time, reforms improved conditions for children, requiring education for those aged 5 to 10 and limiting child labor.

Schooling in the new republic
Public education began to take shape in the Early National Period from 1750-1800. Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson proposed systems of public education to promote social mobility and an enlightened citizenry. Franklin advocated for quasi-vocational schools in Pennsylvania, while Jefferson proposed a three-tiered system in Virginia including basic schools, grammar schools, and college. Both sought to use education to facilitate social advancement for students. Charity schools were also established to educate poor children with the goal of eliminating poverty and crime through moral education. However, these schools faced challenges with costs and enforcing discipline. Segregated schools also emerged in the North, though blacks paid taxes but received fewer educational resources than whites.

Executive summary of the Final Report of the Commission of Investigation into...
This document provides an executive summary of the Commission of Investigation's report on mother and baby homes in Ireland from 1922 to 1998. It summarizes that over 50,000 unmarried mothers and 57,000 children lived in mother and baby homes and county homes during this period. Conditions varied significantly over time and between institutions, with early decades characterized as harsh and institutions improving gradually. High infant mortality rates in the homes, nearly double the national average, are noted as particularly concerning. Oversight of the various privately and publicly run institutions was inconsistent and divided between local and national authorities.
Life in Colonial New England
Life in early New England Puritan settlements was characterized by tight-knit religious communities with little privacy or tolerance for deviance. Members were bound by social covenants to watch over each other, and houses and fields were laid out communally. Education was emphasized so all could read the Bible, though many children attended brief primary schooling before working on family farms.
Egypt childhood life
- In Egypt, birth of a child is celebrated and the baby receives many gifts. Infant mortality is high due to poor hygiene and health of parents. Girls help with housework while boys may attend school.
- In Mesopotamia, large families are preferred and boys are valued over girls. Childhood is harsh and children are expected to work. Infant mortality is also high due to poor nutrition.
- In Canada, all children are welcomed and respected. They have a very high chance of being healthy and have access to free education. Most children born in Canada survive into childhood.
Egypt childhood life
- In Egypt, the birth of a child is celebrated and the baby receives many gifts. Childhood involves gender-specific responsibilities like girls helping with housework while boys may attend school. However, infant mortality is high due to poor hygiene and health issues.
Sk group presaentation
This document summarizes the roles and lives of women in ancient Greece. It describes how girls were educated at home in domestic skills like weaving and cooking. They were expected to stay at home, only leaving for religious duties. Inheritance was rare for women, who were usually excluded from inheriting property. Marriage was an important institution where dowries were commonly exchanged but divorce was possible through mutual agreement. The document also defines key terms like oikos (household), kyrios (male guardian), and the different classes of citizens and non-citizens in ancient Greek society.
Historical Roots of Education in the US.ppt
The document traces the historical roots of education in the United States from the colonial period to modern times. It discusses how education evolved differently across the 13 original colonies based on religion, demographics, and geography. Over time, ideas from European thinkers and the establishment of public schools influenced the development of education in the US. Controversies around the role of religion and the education of diverse groups like Native Americans, African Americans, and women continued to shape the system. The federal government also took on increasing responsibilities for reform, standards, and ensuring equal access to education.

Westward expansion after the civil war
1. After the original California Gold Rush, gold was discovered in other western states and territories like Colorado, spurring mining booms. Mining became a large industry and mining companies started to form instead of individual miners working alone.
2. The successful mining towns that sprang up were called "boom towns" but many became deserted "ghost towns" once the gold or silver played out. Railroad transportation was important for the mining industry and the government encouraged railroad expansion by giving land grants.
3. The transcontinental railroad was completed in 1869 where the Union Pacific and Central Pacific tracks met at Promontory Summit in Utah. Its completion was celebrated by California governor Leland Stanford driving a golden spike.
Westward expansion after the civil war
Westward expansion transformed America after the Civil War through mining, railroads, cattle ranching, and homesteading. The transcontinental railroad connected the country, while mining for gold and other metals led to boomtowns. Cattle drives and cowboys supported the beef industry. The Homestead Act encouraged settlement of the Great Plains, though conflicts arose with Native Americans over land. Native Americans faced difficulties on reservations and conflicts like the Battle of Little Bighorn and Wounded Knee massacre.

It includes questions about key events, people, laws, and amendments from the Reconstruction era, such as the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments, Lincoln's and Johnson's Reconstruction plans, the Freedman's Bureau, Black Codes, and Jim Crow laws. Students are asked to fill out charts comparing Reconstruction plans, define terms, and explain the significance of events like Johnson's impeachment trial and the 1876 presidential election.
Reconstruction
The document provides information about Reconstruction following the U.S. Civil War, including key events and policies. It discusses the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments and their effects. Lincoln's 10% Plan for Reconstruction is compared to the more radical Wade-Davis Bill. Andrew Johnson's more lenient reconstruction plans are outlined and his conflict with Radical Republicans discussed. The rise of groups like the Ku Klux Klan and policies like the Black Codes and Jim Crow laws are summarized.
Battles of the civil war notes
The document provides details about major battles of the Civil War including questions about key details like the first major battle (First Battle of Bull Run), key generals who became famous after certain battles (Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson after First Bull Run), and strategies employed at important battles like Grant's strategy to capture Vicksburg which completed Union control of the Mississippi River. It concludes with details on Sherman's "March to the Sea" strategy of total war to break the Confederacy and questions about the strategies used by Grant to finally convince Lee to surrender at Appomattox Court House.
Civil war Leaders presentation
Tennessee played an important but divided role in the Civil War. It was the last Confederate state to secede due to divisions between its eastern, western, and middle regions. Several key figures influenced the course of the war, including Confederate president Jefferson Davis and generals Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson, as well as Union admiral David Farragut and politicians William Brownlow and Nathan Bedford Forrest of Tennessee. African American regiments like the 54th Massachusetts and 13th United States Colored Troops from Tennessee played significant roles despite facing prejudice.
Tn during the civil war, leaders of the civil war
This document contains a series of questions about leaders and events during the American Civil War. It asks about which state seceded last, Tennessee's reasons for seceding, and the roles of key figures like Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee, and Ulysses S. Grant. It also asks about the contributions of minority regiments like the Massachusetts 54th and the 13th Colored Troops division. Important battles mentioned include the First Battle of Bull Run.
Civil War Battles and Events
The North had several advantages over the South during the Civil War. The North had a larger population and more industrial capabilities, allowing it to better support its army. It also controlled the seas, cutting off international trade from the South. While the South had early battlefield successes, the North's greater resources and manpower allowed it to win increasingly important battles and wear down the South over time.
Toward civil war guided notes
1. The document contains guided notes on the events leading up to the Civil War, including debates over slavery in new territories, the Compromise of 1850, the Kansas-Nebraska Act, the Dred Scott decision, and the Lincoln-Douglas debates.
2. Key events summarized are the formation of the Republican Party in response to the Kansas-Nebraska Act, Chief Justice Taney's ruling in Dred Scott that denied citizenship to African Americans, and abolitionist John Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry which intensified sectional tensions.
3. The notes are intended to help students understand the differing views on slavery that emerged and escalated conflicts in the years leading up to the Civil War.
Toward civil war
The document summarizes key events leading up to the American Civil War, including debates over slavery in new territories gained from Mexico, the Compromise of 1850, the Kansas-Nebraska Act, the Dred Scott decision, and the Lincoln-Douglas debates. Tensions increased as the North and South disagreed over the expansion of slavery. The Missouri Compromise was replaced by popular sovereignty under the Kansas-Nebraska Act, fueling conflict in Kansas between pro- and anti-slavery settlers. The Supreme Court's ruling in Dred Scott denied citizenship to African Americans and found that Congress could not regulate slavery. Lincoln and Douglas debated these issues during their 1858 Senate campaign, further dividing the nation along sectional lines.
The pre civil war south ppt
The South's economy was based almost entirely on agriculture, especially cotton, grown with slave labor. The Deep South states relied heavily on cotton, rice and sugarcane plantations. Eli Whitney's invention of the cotton gin in 1793 boosted cotton production and the demand for slaves. Most Southern whites were small farmers while a minority owned large plantations with many slaves. The rural poor lived in poverty. African Americans preserved elements of their culture while also experiencing oppression through slave codes. Nat Turner's rebellion in 1831 was an example of slave resistance, though violent revolts were rare. Southern cities developed along waterways and railroads.
The pre civil war south guided notes
The document summarizes life in the pre-Civil War South. It discusses the expansion of cotton plantation agriculture throughout the Deep South, fueled by the growth of slavery and the invention of the cotton gin. This led to a booming domestic slave trade and an economy dependent on cotton exports. The majority of whites owned small farms, while a minority of large plantation owners controlled much of the wealth and politics through slave ownership. Enslaved African Americans faced brutal conditions under slave codes but maintained their own family structures, religions, and cultural traditions in the face of oppression.
The spirit of reform notes
This document provides information about various 19th century reform movements in the United States, including religion and reform, temperance, education reform, prison reform, abolitionism, the Underground Railroad, and reform for women's rights. Key figures discussed include Horace Mann, Elizabeth Fry, William Lloyd Garrison, Sojourner Truth, Frederick Douglass, Lucretia Mott, and Susan B. Anthony. The document poses questions about these reform efforts and the people involved to encourage learning about social changes during this period in American history.
The spirit of reform
The document summarizes various social reform movements that took place in the United States during the 1800s, including:
1. The temperance movement sought to ban alcohol, led by Lyman Beecher.
2. Education reform aimed to improve schools and was led by Horace Mann, who influenced the creation of normal schools to train teachers.
3. Prison reform, led by Dorothea Dix, brought attention to poor prison conditions and the incarceration of the mentally ill.
4. The abolition movement gradually grew from societies seeking a gradual end to slavery to immediate abolitionists like William Lloyd Garrison and Frederick Douglass. Notable abolitionists included Sojourner Truth, Harriet Tubman,
Manifest destiny ppt
1) The document discusses the concept of Manifest Destiny and how it led Americans to settle the West coast, specifically in Oregon and California. It describes how mountain men, fur trappers, and settlers on the Oregon Trail contributed to the development of these territories.
2) It then explains how the Mexican War allowed the U.S. to acquire much of the American Southwest, including Texas, New Mexico, California and Utah. The 1848 California Gold Rush spurred massive migration to the region.
3) Other groups like the Mormons also migrated West, establishing settlements in Utah to escape religious persecution they faced elsewhere.
Manifest destiny guided notes
This document provides guided notes on Manifest Destiny and the westward expansion of the United States in the 1800s. It covers topics like mountain men exploring the Oregon Territory, the influx of American settlers in Texas which caused tensions with Mexico, the Texas War for Independence including the battles of the Alamo and San Jacinto, US acquisition of territories following the Mexican-American War including the California Gold Rush, and the Mormon migration. The notes include questions about events, people, and concepts related to this period of US territorial growth and the doctrine of Manifest Destiny.
The Age of Jackson
Andrew Jackson's presidency influenced the spread of American democracy in several ways:
1) Jackson expanded voting rights and portrayed himself as a champion of the common man, though voting was still limited to white men.
2) He implemented the "spoils system" of replacing government workers with his political supporters.
3) Jackson aggressively pursued the forced removal of Native American tribes, most notoriously the Cherokee Trail of Tears, to open more land for white settlement.
The Age of Jackson Guided Notes
This document provides information about Andrew Jackson and key events during the Age of Jackson, including his elections in 1824 and 1828, the development of Jacksonian democracy, the Nullification Crisis, Indian removal, and the Trail of Tears. It does so through a series of questions about Jackson's presidency, the split of the Democratic-Republican party, the spoils system, South Carolina's nullification act, the Indian Removal Act, and the Supreme Court ruling in favor of the Cherokee that was not enforced.
Immigration and the rise of cities
The document discusses immigration and the rise of cities in the United States during the 19th century. It describes how midwestern cities grew along rivers and canals, with cities like Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, and Louisville becoming important centers of industry and trade. Many Irish immigrants came to the U.S. due to the potato famine, and were often forced to remain in the cities where they first arrived. German immigrants primarily came for economic and religious freedom, and settled throughout the Midwest where they had an easier time relocating. Nativist sentiment led some Protestants to mistreat Catholic immigrants and the anti-immigrant Know Nothing party was established with goals including reducing immigration. Nativism resulted in riots in many cities, including Philadelphia

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Daily Life In Colonial America
- 1. Bell Ringer Study for quiz over the First Great Awakening
- 2. Daily Life in Colonial America ESSENTIAL QUESTION: WHAT WAS DAY-TO-DAY LIFE LIKE IN COLONIAL AMERICA?
- 3. The Family ๏ต The family was the basis of colonial society. ๏ต Families were connected to the land they lived on because most people were farmers and the land provided all of their needs. ๏ต Most people married between the ages of 18-20, which was earlier than people in England. ๏ต Indentured servants were not allowed to marry until their contract expired. ๏ต Slaves were not allowed to legally marry.
- 4. The Father ๏ต The father was the head of the household. ๏ต His responsibility was to keep his wife and children fed, clothed, and sheltered. ๏ต If any member of the family committed a crime, it was the father's responsibility to pay the fine. ๏ต The father was in charge of discipline in the home. ๏ต Men would either work on the farm or in a skilled trade such as a blacksmith.
- 5. The Mother ๏ต Women would typically have children into their forties. ๏ต A woman would have between 7-10 children, but it was not uncommon to have 12 or more. Childbirth was the leading cause of death for women in colonial America. ๏ต The mother was responsible for planting and tending the family garden, as well as preserving the vegetables for winter. ๏ต The mother was responsible for milking the cow and making butter. ๏ต Other duties: make soap, cook, clean, laundry.
- 6. Children ๏ต One in ten children died before their first birthday. Four in ten did not live to the age of six. ๏ต Until the age of four, children were dressed in gender-neutral gowns which signified their non-adult status. ๏ต At the age of five, they began to be dressed like their parents and were given chores to help with the family's needs. ๏ต Reasons children were put to work at an early age: need for labor, to keep them busy, and to build wok ethic.
- 7. Boys/Girls โข Sons most often learned the jobs of their fathers. โข The eldest son inherited the family farm/business. โข Sometimes a father would arrange for his son to become an apprentice. This means the boy would go to work for someone else to learn a new trade. โข Daughters would help the mother with her duties, including raising the younger children. โข Older daughters would sometimes go to work as a servant for a wealthy, respectable family.
- 8. Free time/Education ๏ต There was very little free time available. ๏ต Played board games, marbles, tree swings, jump rope, swimming, sledding, "rolling the hoop". ๏ต Kids would often make games out of chores. ๏ต Although girls were taught to read by their parents, only boys attended school.
- 9. Indentured Servants/Slaves ๏ต The only education provided for indentured servants was that of learning a trade. ๏ต The first laws prohibiting slave education were passed in South Carolina in 1740. ๏ต Slaves were prohibited from learning to write, but could learn to read. ๏ต This was because of the focus on religion brought about by the Great Awakening. Slaves must be able to read Scripture if they were to be converted to Christianity.
- 10. Schools ๏ต Boys in New England were sent to grammar school once they had learned how to read using the Bible. In school, they were taught Latin, math, and other subjects necessary to get into college. ๏ต New England villages established schools when the population reached 100 families. ๏ต In the Middle Colonies, most schools were private and run by a particular religious group. The only girls allowed to attend school were Quakers. ๏ต In the Southern colonies, children were educated at home by parents or private tutors.
- 11. Summarizer/Extension Activity Facebook Post Using what we learned in today's lesson, write an appropriate Facebook status for each of the following colonial people: father, mother, son, daughter, indentured servant, and slave.
