AGENDA Standards and Learning Objectives Wall Graph Paired Text Jigsaw Building Walls
STANDARDS ONLS.6.6: Variations among physical environments within the Eastern Hemisphere influence human activities. Human activities also alter the physical environment. CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RH.6-8.7: Integrate visual information (e.g., in charts, graphs, photographs, videos, or maps) with other information in print and digital texts.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES 1. Students will compare a physical wall built by a country to the US-Mexico border. 1. Students will identify reasons why countries build walls.
POLL Based on this graph, do you believe the events of September 11, 2001 lead to the increase of the number of walls and barriers built by different countries? YES or NO
PAIRED TEXT Groups will work with a paired text to discuss similarities between their particular wall and the US-Mexico Border, how their wall influenced access to their country, and how the US-Mexico Border influences who can easily enter the US.
JIGSAW Groups will trade two members to share findings from their paired text.
OPEN ENDED QUESTION Write one reason as to why countries build physical walls and barriers.
