(See example) • What questions arise as you look at the notes that you have in Column 1? • Write those questions in the “What do I want to know?” column. Make sure that your questions correspond with your notes. (See example) • Read and analyze Documents 1-3. • Try to answer questions from column 2. Write your answers in the “What answers did I learn?” column. • Write any new information that you learned in column 4.

  22. Somebody Wanted But So Now you try it with Documents 4-6. Let’s try it together with this text: In June 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand, heir to the Austrian throne, visited the Bosnian capital, Sarajevo. As the royal entourage drove through the city Serbian nationalist GavriloPrincip stepped from the crowd and shot the archduke and his wife Sophie. Princip was a member of the Black Hand, an organization promoting Serbian nationalism. The assassinations touched off a diplomatic crisis. On July 28, Austria-Hungary declared what was expected to be a short war against Serbia. (From Chapter 19, “First World War, “ in The Americans, McDougal Littell, 2002, page 580.) Who is the important somebody? What did they want? Discuss anything that may have caused delays or any unexpected events that may have occurred. What happened as a result?

  23. Four-Box Comment Card • Count off to create groups. • Take an index card to see what your role is in your group. • The teacher will give four prompts to guide you as you analyze Documents 7-9.

  24. Placemat Students will work in groups of four. Each group will analyze Documents 10-12. After students have the chance to analyze the documents, they should answer the question, “What do the precedents set by President Washington tell us about him as a leader?” individually. Once each student has had the opportunity to write his/her thoughts, they will discuss their answers with the group. The group will then write one answer in the center that summarizes the key points from all group members.
