Launching The Module: Taking a Stand

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Scholars analyze various photos to determine how the people pictured take a stand. They use a Notice/Wonder Note Catcher to help organize their thoughts. Learners then study a Taking a Stand: Frayer Model handout to learn what it means to take a stand and prepare for future lessons in the unit.
