Description
This product is a Google form and doc linked to an interactive map on the settlement of Texas.
The region we know as Texas has had an interesting history, especially in the early 1800s. During that period, its government changed hands several times, and so its borders varied as well. But one constant was the immigration of eager settlers to the region. They came in droves, pulled by the land and opportunities the region offered.
Students will analyze the interactive maps and answer the 7 reading comprehension questions on the form. Then, students will read "Texas: From Settlement to Statehood" and complete a timeline of events that led Texas to becoming a state in 1845 on a grid. Finally, students will answer 4 short answer questions on the doc. This activity has worked very well in pairs using two devices. This product is an excellent enrichment activity.
Students will learn about:
- The Physical Geography of Texas
- Mexico in 1824
- Land Grants of Stephen Austin
- Texas War for Independence
- Population Growth in Texas Cities
- General Santa Anna
- Texas War for Independence
This product is editable to suit your needs. Questions and option orders are shuffled.
