Civil War lesson plan

There are tons of books and websites dedicated to studying the Civil War of the U.S. One can get lost and confused when trying to generate lesson plans for this era in history because of so many resources. It's hard to pull them all together and decide which ones would be best to use. What I'm giving you here is an online lesson plan for the Civil War. This plan would be good to use in your homeschool, I think, because it covers all the basics - Objectives, materials, historical fiction, integrating reading and writing, and enrichment activities. It includes other things, too, such as the unit wrap-up and further studies and resources.

This was an important time in our nation's history and should be given the full measure of study, especially if you are concerned that too much history is being lost to the minds of young people today.
