change, or a demand for change and it is supported by many
people. Black people in the 1960s were being mistreated due
to their race and we are going to create a timeline today and
tomorrow about the specific events that occur in the
movement.
Instructional Steps: B:
Step 1: 7 min. I: Have student repeat the word
Does anyone know what the civil rights movement is? Why segregation and supremacy
was it created? A:
Write the word "segregation" on the board. Have the class
say and spell the word. Explain that "segregation" means an
attempt to separate and isolate races in every area of life and
achieve supremacy.
Next, write the word "supremacy" under the definition for
segregation and explain that it means supreme authority or
power. Like the supreme court has the most authority or
power over state courts.
Example Scenario:
Imagine that you and a friend have planned a special
Saturday afternoon at your favorite video arcade. As you
arrive at the entrance, you are told that only children who
have brown hair and brown eyes are allowed inside. You
happen to have black hair and brown eyes; therefore, you
cannot play inside. This would be considered segregation:
someone is separating you and keeping you from doing what
you would like to do because of something different like the
color of your hair and eyes. How would you feel? Ask
students if they have any other examples to share.
HOTS
Based on what we just learned about segregation, how do
you think that relates to the civil rights movement?
How do you think the Black people in America responded to
segregation?

important facts and people associated with the civil rights
movement. They will work together to create a civil rights
movement timeline after researching specific events in small
groups.
Show an example of a timeline on the board. Point out the

dates, events, and pictures displayed.
Now share the events and dates that students will research:
1954: Brown v. Board of Education
1955: Montgomery bus boycott
1963: March on Washington
1965: Voting Rights Act
1968: Martin Luther King Jr. assassinated
Virginia vs. Loving

that it provides them with a framework to use while they
conduct their research. Model by writing the dates on your
timeline: 1954, 1955, 1963, 1965, and 1968. Be sure to
space out each year so that specific dates can be added, and
information recorded.
Differentiation:
Students may work alone or with a partner. If any student
wants to work alone, they can get a more specific event from
the civil rights movement that is still different from the other
events being presented.

Once all groups have completed the research phase, inform
students that each group will contribute to the final timeline
featuring all of the dates and events researched.
Their timeline contribution should have:
A picture (printed or drawn)
2-3 sentences about the event
A year to go along with the event

Post Lesson Analysis
Lesson Adjustment: (How are you re-teaching objectives for mastery based on formative assessment? Include
evidence.)
I would include more important events from the civil rights movement and potentially have students work in pairs
instead of groups if they chose to collaborate with someone or not. Having more events would have allowed
students to get a bigger picture of the hard work that was put into the civil rights movement.
Reflection on Teaching: (Analyze and evaluate your lesson and class management.)
This lesson was amazing! Behavior was well managed since everyone had a different part in their group and
students were focused with researching their events.
Addressing Pre-PGP: INTEGRATED BLOCK ONLY
(Using the three Pre-PGP goals completed in EDUC 393, describe how you progressed, or not, toward improving
your practice within those Domains. Include a statement on how your efforts impacted, or not, students’ learning
experiences.) Complete this box after the 2nd social studies lesson, the 2nd math lesson, the 2nd reading lesson, and
one lesson within the science unit.
