Civil War Timeline

This playlist coincided with lessons on key turning points of the Civil War. Students would research and take notes on the different "turning points" as determined by the 8th grade American Cultures teachers here at Hershey Middle School. This playlist made it easy to find short clips to enhance lessons. Active Inspire Flip charts were used as well.
The play list allowed for reinforcement of key lesson points.
