Teacher's guide for the 34-week, high school Civics course! A detailed account of the troubled history of religious persecution between the 16th and 18th centuries that occurred in England is presented, and then undertakes a thorough exploration of the ideas and the sacrifices that helped to create religious liberty in America. This Teacher's Guide is developed to assist educators in the following way: Features: Each suggested weekly schedule has five easy-to-manage lessons which combine reading and worksheets. Worksheets and quizzes are perforated and three-hole punched - materials are easy to tear out, hand out, grade, and store. As always, you are encouraged to adjust the schedule and materials as you need to in order to best work within your educational program. Worksheets can be alternately used as class discussion questions rather than short answer. Workflow: Students will read the pages in their book and then complete each section of the course materials. Quizzes to demonstrate understanding of the material and critical thinking skills are given at regular intervals with space to record each grade. Younger students may be given the option of taking open-book quizzes. Daily Schedule: Includes a suggested daily schedule for the course. Space is given for assignment dates. There is flexibility in scheduling for the educator. Quizzes/Exams: The course includes six quizzes - one after every four chapters - as well as a final exam in the form of an essay question. Answer keys are included for both worksheets and testing materials. Time: Approximately 30 to 40 minutes per lesson, depending on allowed discussion time Grading: It is always the prerogative of an educator to assess student grades however he or she might deem best. The following is only a suggested guideline based on the material presented through this course: 1. Worksheets within the course should be worth 100 points each. 2. Quizzes and final exam within the course are worth 100 points each. The suggested grade values are noted as follows: 90 to 100 percent = A; 80 to 89 percent = B; 70 to 79 percent = C; 60 to 69 percent = D; and 0 to 59 percent = F.
