Description

This biography on Thomas Paine focuses on his arrival in the American Colonies and major arguments in his work Common Sense. The biography also addresses the impact Paine's arguments had on both separating from England and on documents such as the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.

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 they find the answer

The answer key demonstrates these steps. Academic and content vocabulary words and definitions 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 the biography as part of a general series I have posted on Amped Up Learning: Biographies in American History OR Biographies in World History.
