3. Instructional Procedures:
Introduction/Hook –
To begin the lesson, the students should create a KWL Chart. The teacher should explain that
this unit will cover the “Conflict over Florida” at the time of exploration. This will include
learning about the explorers from Britain, France, and Spain, the many Native American tribes in
Florida, and St. Augustine, the first permanent European settlement. The students should then
spend 5 minutes filling out the first two columns of their KWL Chart.
Timeline –
For the next 15 minutes, the students will all participate in a class activity. Together, the class
will create a timeline of events in Florida from 1500 to 1821, by placing the yellow Timeline
Cards provided in the correct order on the board, and then discuss them as a class. First, the
teacher should draw a line across the board and label the year 1500 at the beginning of the line,
and the year 1821 at the end of the line. The teacher should put the Timeline Cards into a hat or
bowl and have each student randomly select one card, until all cards have been picked. Taking
turns in groups of 4 or 5, the students should place their card(s) on the board where they believe
it belongs. After all the cards are in the correct order, the class should spend a few minutes
discussing them. The teacher should go over the following events by asking the students to find
them on the board:
The explorers and the country they were from
Who gave Florida its name
When the first permanent settlement was established
Fort Mose
Where the Seminole Indians were from
Fort Caroline
Beginning and end of the American Revolution
Florida’s first governor
The different periods of Spanish or British rule
Native Americans –
After the cards have been taken off the board and put away, the teacher should split the class into
ten small groups, or pairs. Each group will receive a summary about one Native American tribe
(found in the consumables). The group should read the summary about their tribe, and then
create one or two sentence strips that reflect on one of the cause and effects of the European
exploration for that tribe. The teacher should instruct the students to write their names on the
back of their sentence strips so they can be given a grade. When the group has finished their
sentence strip, one student from the group should tape the sentence strip on the board. After all
groups have completed this task, each group should share what they learned about their Native
American tribe.
St. Augustine and Mission San Luis –
This section will cover the first permanent European settlement, St. Augustine, and the largest
Spanish mission in Florida, Mission San Luis. The teacher can introduce the subject by telling
4. the students a few facts about St. Augustine that the students will need to know to complete the
following activities. Some of these include:
St. Augustine is the oldest permanent European settlement in the United States.
Don Pedro Menendez de Aviles is the founder of St. Augustine.
The largest Spanish mission in Florida is Mission San Luis.
St. Augustine was attacked in 1586 by Sir Francis Drake, a British explorer.
The Timucuan Indians lived in and around St. Augustine before the European arrived.
The teacher should then break the students up into 4 different groups. Each group should be
given a Puzzle Board, and the Puzzle Pieces that go along with it (found in the box). The teacher
should then hand each group one worksheet (found in the consumables) and either pick or let the
groups pick one person in their group to record all of the answers on the worksheet. The students
should read the directions on the worksheet and complete the puzzle, using the next 10 to 15
minutes. After all the groups have completed their puzzle, the class should go over the questions
and answers together, and then put all of the puzzle pieces away.
Closure:
If there is any free time left, the students can take some time to explore the physical items in the
box. There are the Native American artifacts and Timucuan Drawings, pictures from St.
Augustine’s early years, and two pieces of Coquina, the material used to build the famous
Castillo de San Marcos in St. Augustine.
Consumables:
Native American Descriptions
Timeline Cards

Conclusion: 10 minutes
Instructional Procedures:
Introduction/Hook –
To begin, the teacher should give each student a KWL chart. The students will fill in what they
already know about the discovery of Florida and exploration by early Europeans. After
reviewing their KWL charts with their partner or table-mates, the students will get into their
teacher-chosen groups of three to four students.
Using the websites below, the students will read the timelines and fill in the blanks on their
worksheet. Then each student should go through the timelines/websites and highlight, or indicate
in some way, which events correspond to one of the three countries involved in the conflict over
Florida. For example, Pensacola was established by the Spanish, so that box should be
highlighted in yellow to indicate the Spanish, or Jean Ribault who established a French colony,
should be highlighted in blue to represent the French.
Websites: http://www.floridamemory.com/exhibits/timeline/
http://www.flheritage.com/preservation/comprehensive/chap7.cfm#1700
Although the students are working in groups, each student will be responsible for writing down
the events on their own worksheet. These worksheets will be a study guide for the end of unit
assessment.
After the students have had time to work in groups and complete their timeline, the class will
discuss the correct answers and corresponding countries. The teacher should include a brief
explanation of the First Spanish Period (1565-1763), the British Period (1763-1783), and the
Second Spanish Period (1783-1821), since that may not be clear to the students. This will help
promote healthy discussion.
6. Closure:
After the timelines have been completed and discussed with the class, the students should take 5
to 10 minutes to complete their KWL chart by adding anything new that they learned while
doing the timeline.

Instructional Procedures:
Introduction/Hook –
To introduce the subject, the teacher will ask the students to name any European explorers they
have already learned about and an interesting fact about that explorer.
7. In the consumables, the names of the explorers have been written in ready to cut lists. List one
should be used if the teacher plans to group the students before they choose their explorers. List
two should be used if the teacher would like the groups to be random. To decide which explorer
they will have, one student from each group will choose a name out of a hat.
The teacher will hand each group a packet (found in the consumables) that contains a brief
summary about all of the explorers. The students will find their explorer in the packet and have
10-15 minutes to read that section. Together in their groups, the students should decide what
information to include in their presentation, and take 5-10 minutes to write those facts down in
paragraph form. Even though the students are working in groups, each student should write on
their own paper a short paragraph about their explorer to turn into the teacher to be graded. The
students should include these facts in their paper and presentation: the explorer’s name, the time
period, their home country, what areas they explored or settlements they established, any
problems they faced, whether or not the settlement was a success, and the explorer’s historical
significance.
Closure:
To close the lesson, each group should present a few facts about their explorer to the class.

Instructional Procedures:
Introduction/Hook –
To begin, explain that this lesson will discuss the Native American tribes in Florida, where they
lived, and how their interaction with the Europeans affected their lives. The teacher should
instruct the students to make a T-chart. The left side should be labeled “Predictions” and the
right “Conclusions”. On the “Predictions” side of the T-chart, the students should list all of the
ways they think the European exploration affected the Native Americans. They will complete
this chart at the end of the lesson.
The teacher should give all of the students a blank map worksheet. Using their textbooks, the
website listed below, the books provided in the box, or any other available sources, the students
should complete the blank map of Florida. The students should write the number that
corresponds to the tribe in the correct blank provided. They can do this with partners, or
individually. The teacher should hold a brief discussion of the map in order to confirm that all
students have labeled their map correctly.
Website: http://www.ocls.info/Virtual/galleries/history/native_americans.asp#jeaga
After completing the map activity, the teacher should split the class into ten small groups, or
pairs. Each group will receive a summary about one Native American tribe (found in the
consumables). The group should read the summary about their tribe, and then create one or two
sentence strips that reflect on one of the cause and effects of the European exploration for that
tribe. When the group has finished their sentence strip, one student from the group should tape
the sentence strip on the board. After all groups have completed this task, each group should
share what they learned about their Native American tribe.
Once every group has had a chance to share something about their tribe, the students can now
take about 10 minutes to explore the Native American artifacts that are in the box labeled
“Artifact Box.” The laminated sheet called “Timucuan Indian Midden Mound Treasures” lists all
of the different items the students will find in the box. Along with these, there are also pages of
“Classroom Interpretation of Timucua Drawings” provided for the students to look at and read.
9. Make sure to read the explanation on the back of the first page to the students before handing out
the pages.

show St. Augustine during its early years. By observing the pictures, the students should be able
to get an idea of what the town was like during colonial America and the 19th century. The
pictures should be passed around the class so that each student has a chance to look carefully at
each picture. The teacher should encourage the students to take notes as they look at the pictures.
Using the next 15-20 minutes, the students should write a paragraph or two describing what they
think life was like when St. Augustine was first being established. After they have completed
their writings, the papers should be turned into the teacher for a grade.
The teacher should then break the students up into 4 groups. Each group should be given a
Puzzle Board, and the Puzzle Pieces that go along with it (found in the box). The teacher should
then hand each group one worksheet (found in the consumables) and either pick or let the groups
pick one person in their group to record all of the answers on the worksheet. The students should
read the directions on the worksheet and complete the puzzle, using the next 20 minutes. After
completing the puzzle and turning in their worksheets, the students should take apart the puzzles

Extra Fun!
Native American Beading Craft
This section can be done during Hour 3 or during any free time.
For this craft, the students will be making a beaded bracelet in one of two patterns, either a
flower pattern or a more traditional Native American pattern. The kits for this project are
provided in the box. Prior to starting this project, the teacher should take all of the pre-cut pieces
of yarn and either tape or glue the ends so that the beads will slide on easily.
Instructional Procedures:
Flower Bracelet:
The kit should contain black yarn or cord, pink pony beads, orange pony beads, and black
pony beads.
The teacher should hand each student a piece of yarn, 26 pink beads, 26 orange beads,
and 14 black beads.
Row 1: Slide 3 orange beads onto the yarn and into the middle.
Row 2: Using the yarn on the left, slide 1 orange bead, 2 black beads, 1 orange bead onto
the yarn, but do not slide them to the center. Then take the piece of yarn on the right and
string it through the 4 beads in the opposite direction. Pull snug.
Row 3: Using the yarn on the left, string 3 orange beads onto the yarn. Then take the
piece of yarn on the right and string it through the 3 beads in the opposite direction. Pull
snug. You have now completed a flower!
Repeat rows 1, 2, and 3, alternating colors until you have 6 flowers.
13. Once you have made 6 flowers, bring the two sides together by sliding each end of the
yarn through the first row of beads, in opposite directions.
Slide 3 beads on each end and then tie a knot about 2-3 inches away from the bracelet.
You may have to tie 2 or 3 knots to prevent the beads from sliding off the ends.
Now you have made an adjustable pony bead flower bracelet!
Helpful Pictures:
Native American Bracelet:
The kit should contain black yarn or cord, black pony beads, red pony beads, orange pony
beads, and yellow pony beads.
The teacher should hand each student a piece of black yarn or cord, 33 black pony beads,
22 red pony beads, 14 orange pony beads, and 6 yellow pony beads.
Row 1: Slide 1 black bead into the middle of the yarn.
Row 2: Slide 1 black bead onto the left side of the yarn, but do not slide it to the middle.
Then take the right side of the yarn and string it through the bead from the opposite side.
Row 3: Slide 1 black bead, 1 red bead, 1 black bead onto the left side of the yarn. String
the right side through all 3 beads, in the opposite direction. Pull snug.
Row 4: Repeat row 3.
Row 5: Slide 1 black bead, 1 red bead, 1 orange bead, 1 red bead, 1 black bead onto the
left side of the yarn. String the right side through all 5 beads, in the opposite direction.
Pull snug.
Row 6: Repeat row 5.
Row 7: Slide 1 black bead, 1 red bead, 1 orange bead, 1 yellow bead, 1 orange bead, 1
red bead, 1 black bead onto the left side of the yarn. String the right side through all 3
beads, in the opposite direction. Pull snug.
Row 8: Repeat row 7.
Row 9: Repeat row 5.
Row 10: Repeat row 5.
Row 11: Repeat row 3.
Row 12: Repeat row 3.
Row 13: Repeat row 2.
Row 14: Repeat row 2.
At this point, you have completed the pattern. If the bracelet is too small to wrap around
your wrist, repeat row 2 a few more times using the extra black beads until it fits.
Bring the two sides together by sliding each end of the yarn through the first bead in
opposite directions.
14. String 1 red, 1 orange, and 1 yellow bead on each side. Tie a knot on each end, about 2-3
inches away from the bracelet. You may have to tie 2 or 3 knots to prevent the beads
from slide off the end.
You have now completed your Native American bracelet!
