Socratic SeminarPERIOD 1: CHAPTER 1

*NOTE- YOU WILL TURN IN YOUR NOTES FROM OUR DISCUSSION AS YOUR EXIT TICKET

Rules, Roles, and Goals -You may only participate IF YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE READING. If you have not, then you will not be allowed to speak today, you may only take notes. -We will first go over the Key Concepts that you MUST understand. -Then those of you who are prepared may ask your discussion questions and in doing so, take on the role of the Discussion leader (call on students, be sure to keep the conversation on topic and make sure that it remains productive. If the topic is no longer helpful, it is time to move on.)

Rules, Roles, and Goals -To keep the discussion well-rounded, we are going to follow the two-before-you rule. Once you have spoken two others should speak first before you raise your hand again (UNLESS YOU ARE THE LEADER) -Goal: To address the essential questions of the unit. To address any confusion or complexity of the text!

Must Understand: Key Concepts from Period 1 (1491-1607) and Period 2 (1607-1754)-How did native populations in North America developed complex societies based on their interactions with the environment and each other (pg. 5-10)?-How did maize cultivation in present-day Mexico and the American Southwest and a mix of foraging and hunting in the Northwest and parts of California support economic development and social diversification among native societies (pg. 8-10)-Why did native populations in the Great Basin and western Great Plains develop mobile lifestyles (pg. 8-10)?

Must Understand: Key Concepts from Period 1 (1491-1607) and Period 2 (1607-1754)

-How did European overseas expansion led to the Columbian Exchange (pg. 14-15)?

-How did Spanish and Portuguese exploration and conquest of the Americas lead to widespread deadly epidemics, the emergence of racially mixed populations, and a caste system (pg. 16-22)?

-How and why did Spanish and Portuguese traders join with some West Africans to recruit slave labor for the Americas (pg. 11-13)?

-How was European exploration and conquest motivated by a desire for new sources of wealth, increased power and status, and converts to Christianity (pg. 18-22)?

-How did new sources of mineral wealth from the Americas assist the European shift from feudalism to capitalism (pg. 18-19)?

Must Understand: Key Concepts from Period 1 (1491-1607) and Period 2 (1607-1754)-How did poor understandings of Native Americans on the part of the Spanish and Portuguese lead to debates about how to treat them (pg. 16 and 22)?-How did European attempts to change Native American beliefs and world-views lead to resistance and conflict (pg. 21-22)?

Must Understand: Key Concepts from Period 1 (1491-1607) and Period 2 (1607-1754)

-How did Spain seek to establish tight control over the process of colonization in the Western Hemisphere and concert and/or exploit the native populations (pg. 15-22)?-How did Spanish colonizing efforts in North America, particularly after the Pueblo Revolt (i.e., Pope’s Rebellion), lead to accommodations with some aspects of American Indian culture (pg. 21)?

Periodization The authors of The American Pageant use 33,000 B.C.E. and 1769 C.E. as the beginning and ending dates for “New World Beginnings,” but the first chronological period of study for the AP US Exam is from 1491 to 1607, with the understanding that 1491 is a symbolic date for pre-Columbian contact in North America. In your opinion, does 33,000 B.C.E, 1491, or some other date make the most sense as the beginning of this time period? Explain.

Contextualization Can you place the Columbian exchange in a global context? That is, how do the interactions and adaptations among societies across the Atlantic fit into the larger story of world history? What evidence did you find to support your position?

Appropriate Use of Relevant Historical Evidence

The authors content that 1492 was a “fateful year” in North American history when “the land and the native peoples alike felt the full shock of the European ‘discovery’. As you read this chapter, what relevant historical evidence did you find to support, modify, or refute that assertion?

Essential Questions -What were Native American societies like before Europeans arrived? -What changes occurred in Europe that made world exploration possible? -What was the impact of European arrival on Native American societies? -To what extent did Native Americans resist European encroachment?

Your questions…Reminder of the role

Those of you who were prepared may ask your discussion questions and in doing so, take on the role of the Discussion leader (call on students, be sure to keep the conversation on topic and make sure that it remains productive. If the topic is no longer helpful, it is time to move on.)
