ActiveHistory: The American Civil War Simulation Worksheet focusing on the Battles Main Task: Timeline of Events - The Battles ▪ The class-based simulation taught you about the ‘big themes’ but deliberately avoided talking about the battles themselves as this would have confused your own strategies. ▪ In this activity you will therefore learn about what really happened. • As you progress through the simulation, complete this table in as much detail as you can. • The first row is done for you.
Extension Tasks ▪ Play the game through a second time. Use this to develop your existing notes about the actions taken by Davis and Lincoln. • Create a Google Earth Tour of these battles by locating each one on a map. Add battle map overlays if you can find them. • Produce a “living graph” of these battles: in other words, have dates running along the page, and place the events either towards the top if they are Union victories, and lower down if they are Union defeats. Choose your exact spot based on how much of a victory / defeat the battle was. An online tool for creating Living Graphs can be found at www.classtools.net. A complete scheme of work on the American Civil War – including interactive quizzes, worksheets, lesson plans and extension activities – can be found on the American Civil War Page of www.activehistory.co.uk.
