I just released a new social studies differentiated instruction lesson plan on my store http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/American-Revolution-Military-and-Political-Aspects-Differentiated-Lesson-459201. If you are a NYS 7th or 8th grade social studies teacher and you have not checked out this site yet, what are you waiting for?! I follow the NYS 7th and 8th grade social studies curriculum and standards.

The new social studies differentiated instruction lesson plan is called “Military and Political Aspects of the American Revolution”. It includes:

  • Lesson Plan
  • 3 Ability Levels of Vocabulary Sheets

  • 2 Ability Levels of Note Sheets for the Enriched PowerPoint
  • Basic Note Sheet for the Basic PowerPoint (Enriched note sheets works for the Basic PowerPoint Version too) The PowerPoint is leveled to incorporate parallel teaching in the classroom. It allows for the enriched students to go into more detail and critical thinking. The Basic level version is simplified which allows students time for repetition.
