Board of Education: A Fight for Simple Justice Grade Lvl: IJS Author: Rubin, Susan Goldman Length: 134 Copyright: 2016 In 1954, one of the most significant Supreme Court decisions of the twentieth century aimed to end school segregation in the United States.

	KM 13633KM 13633 Goldie's History 4th Grade: Industrial Revolution Grade Lvl: I Author: Length: 0 Copyright: 2023 Fourth grade. The Industrial Revolution marked a period of development in the latter half of the 18th century that transformed largely rural, agrarian societies in Europe and America into industrialized, urban ones. Goods that had once been crafted by hand started to be produced in mass quantities by machines in factories, thanks to the introduction of new machines and techniques in textiles, iron making and other industries. The positives and negatives of the Industrial Revolution are complex. On one hand, unsafe working conditions were widespread and pollution from coal and gas are still struggles of today. On the other, the move to cities and inventions that made clothing, communication and transportation more affordable and accessible to the masses changed the course of world history. Regardless of these questions, the Industrial Revolution had a transformative economic, social and cultural impact, and played an integral role in laying the foundations for modern society.

	KM 13634KM 13634 Goldie's History 4th Grade: Iowa's Corn and Agriculture Industry Grade Lvl: I Author: Length: 0 Copyright: 2023 Fourth grade. Corn has been at the center of Iowa life for much of its existence, and Iowa leads the United States in corn production. The state set a 2016 record with 2.7 billion bushels of corn raised. In addition, the yield in 2018 set an all-time high with an average of 204 bushels per acre. Iowa’s incredibly fertile fields stretch for miles of corn and soybeans, providing the United States with two of its most valuable exports. But as farmers are growing more crops and managing more acres, fewer Iowans are making a living as farmers. The number of farms in Iowa is on a steady decline while the average farm size continues to rise. Technology drives increasingly efficient precision farming. This begs the question: Has farming in Iowa shown more continuity or change? In this lesson, students will analyze sources and then write an argumentative essay for a fictitious competition sponsored by the Iowa State Fair board.

	KM 933KM 933 Presidency -Jackdaw (BB) Grade Lvl: PI Author: Length: 0 Copyright: 2008 As head of the executive branch of government, the President of the United States has one of the most influential jobs in the world today. But much has changed since George Washington was sworn in as our nation's first president on April 30, 1789. While Article ll of the Constitution provides a basic job description for the chief executive-including powers, qualification, terms of office, and the election process, the explanation of how the president is able to carry out these duties is surprisingly vague. The Framers of the Constitution left it up to the individuals elected president to determine their specific role in national and world affairs. But presidential powers are not unlimited. The legislative and judicial branches, through the system of checks and balances, also play an important part in defining the job of the president. This Focus Jackdaw traces the evolution of the Presidency from its beginnings to the present day. A wide variety of primary sources -such as campaign memorabilia, letters, diary entries, photographs, and government documents will help students understand the official role of the president as well as offer them a glimpse into bow this powerful position has shaped the private lives of those who have served as chief executive.

The Ride would last twelve days. Despite the fact that segregation on buses crossing state lines was ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in 1946, and segregation in interstate transportation facilities was ruled unconstitutional in 1960, these rulings were routinely ignored in the South. The thirteen Freedom Riders intended to test the laws and draw attention to the lack of enforcement with their peaceful protest. As the Riders traveled deeper into the South, they encountered increasing violence and opposition.
