The essential question for this lesson was "How were the results of the Election of 1860 representative of the deep divisions over slavery?" To help answer this question the class watched a crash course video which provided basic and background information on the election of 1860. The teacher then assigned students to take notes on the pictures that were provided on the Civilwarinart website. The images on the website help students better comprehend why the election of 1860 started.
Students were then to look for three additional pictures that helped sum up the result of the election of 1860. Next, Students turned thier notes into a storyboard by using educreations or storyboard. Creating the storyboard helped students understand how the slaves were impacted by the election. In addition, it helped us comprehend the process of how Abraham Lincoln was elected although he was not slavery advocate.
My partner and I created our video using educreations and below is the link to our video.
