Description
These resources accompany this youtube video from History For Humans on the Haymarket Square Riot & Fight for Workers' Rights!
This is a complete, everything you need, learning activity for distance learning and distance teaching or homeschooling! It starts with a youtube video-lecture from History for Humans (this is free on youtube, link below) and comes with a follow-along interactive note sheet that could be completed digitally or with pen and paper. It also has a quick 7 question Google Form quiz to check for understanding. Lastly, it has an extension lesson that would take about 45 minutes. Students view several primary sources that includes political cartoons and also brief newspaper reports. Then they determine the bias of each (the directions explain how to do this) and use evidence from the source to support their answer. Then to dive deeper and apply their learning they create three different headlines for the day after the Haymarket Riot from a neutral, critical, and supportive point-of-view. And there are answers keys for everything!
The video is not just engaging but also teaches in a way to help struggling learners. It tells the amazing story of what led the strikers and protesters to gather at Haymarket Square, the violent events of the night, the aftermath and its legacy but also breaks down the problems for workers in industrial America and the rise of the labor movement.
My other lessons on the Gilded Age:

2) Haymarket Riot and the Labor Movement
3) How the Other Half Lived: Immigration and Urbanization
