Social Studies Interactive Notebook

U.S. History

Based on South Carolina 5th Grade Standards

Created by Katie from Smarty Sprinkles

How to Use These pages are meant to be used in

an interactive notebook or placed into a binder in order for students to

connect their reading and thinking with social studies concepts. Each page is

based from South Carolina Standards and Indicators for 5th graders. But they can be used to teach the same concepts

for any social studies lesson.

Some graphic organizers need to be cut out and glued onto paper so that

they may be used like a flip book. Others are fine left on the page.

*****This set includes Standards 5-1 through 5-3, Reconstruction through WWI. The final

3 standards will come in a separate set.

Indicator: 5-1.1 Summarize the aims and course of Reconstruction, including the effects of Abraham Lincoln’s assassination, Southern resistance to the rights of freedmen, and the agenda of the Radical Republicans.
