Description
Louisiana Purchase Color by Number, Reading Passage and Text Marking
This Louisiana Purchase Color by Number and Text Marking activity is the perfect way to bring life to the topic! Students read a non-fiction passage and search for answers while marking evidence from the text. Perfect reading comprehension activity.
Topics include: Thomas Jefferson, Napoleon, Lewis and Clark, and the Louisiana Purchase.
Students complete a “before reading” anticipation guide, read about the Louisiana Purchase, answer questions, mark the text for evidence, color the picture according to their answer, and complete the “after reading” anticipation guide.
This is a great cross curriculum activity that also practices Language Arts skills and citing evidence. You can use this activity to assess prior knowledge. You can use this activity as a unit review. Lastly, you could use the student worksheet as a quiz or formative and then let them color as a reward! You choose what works best for you.
This is a fun, colorful activity that allows students to show mastery while relaxing, learning and coloring in their answers. This is also perfect for emergency sub plans! Hang the finished product in the hall for teachers and students to stop and admire.

My students really enjoy interacting with this product. I like that they can work with a partner and they scour the text searching for the answers. For any teacher, that is surely a win-win situation.
There is collaboration, Literacy skills and historical learning all happening within a single task. The students enjoy the coloring in, and I like that they enjoy working and learning.
As I said, a win-win situation.
Thank you.

These are such great one day lessons! No need to over teach the Louisiana Purchase. This does a great job. My favorite part is studnets have to provide evidence of where the answer is in the reading. Thank you!
