What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Build timelines for events in two places using the same date scale. Read them together to explain how timing and local conditions shaped what happened.
What Mastery Looks Like
- Students place dated events from the French and Haitian revolutions in the right order on aligned timelines. They explain how colonial slavery shaped events in Saint-Domingue and use dates to support a connection between the two places.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may use different year spacing on each timeline, making events appear closer together than they were. They may assume events close in time had the same cause, or overlook slavery when comparing France and Saint-Domingue.
How to Assess It
- Exit ticket: Place France's 1789 rights declaration and 1794 abolition of slavery in its colonies, Saint-Domingue's 1791 uprising, and Haiti's 1804 independence on two aligned timelines. Explain one link between the timelines and one condition unique to Saint-Domingue.
Lesson moves
Ways to Teach It
Give pairs dated event cards for France and Saint-Domingue from 1789 to 1804; have them peg the cards to two strings sharing one year scale.
Ask: Why did demands for rights play out differently in 1789 France and 1791 Saint-Domingue? Name one condition in each place.
Hand out a two-row timeline with three events in the wrong years; pairs correct it and explain each fix using event cards.
Use dated closure notices from two nearby school districts after a storm; chart closures side by side and compare the reasons given.
