Description

This biography on Thomas Jefferson focuses on his role in writing the Declaration of Independence, his differences with Alexander Hamilton and how these resulted in the formation of the country's first political parties, the Louisiana Purchase, and his contradictory position on slavery.

The biography includes a series of questions based on the reading.

In using this in my own class room, students are encouraged to:

1. Number the paragraphs

2. Read the biography

3. Highlight answers in the reading

4. Use complete sentences

5. Identify the paragraph where the find the answer

The answer key demonstrates these steps. Academic and content vocabulary words are included.

For those seeking distance learning options, the biography can be readily converted to a digital activity using Google Slides.

You can also purchase this biography as part of a Mini-Lesson - a video guide to Ken Burns' documentary on the Corps of Discovery is included. Finally, you can purchase the biography as part of a general series I have posted on Amped Up Learning: Biographies in American History.
