  1. 22.2 Uniter or Divider

  2. Standards • 8.9.4 Students discuss the importance of the slave issue as raised by the annexation Texas and California’s admission to the union as a free state under the Compromise of 1850. • 8.9.5 Students analyze the significance of the States’ Rights Doctrine, the Missouri Compromise (1820), the Wilmot Proviso (1846), the Compromise of 1850, Henry Clay’s role in the Missouri Compromise and the Compromise of 1850, the Kansas-Nebraska Act (1854), the Dred Scott v. Sandford decision (1857), and Lincoln-Douglas debates.

  3. 8.10.1 Students compare the conflicting interpretations of state and federal authority as emphasized in the speeches and writings of statesmen such as Daniel Webster and John C. Calhoun.

  4. Daily Guided Questions • Could anything else have been done to prevent a civil war? • Why were so many Northerners against slavery by the end of the1850’s? • Why would so many southerners protect the institution of slavery?

  5. Uniter or Divider • Identify the resource you are reviewing (what is it?). • Summarize the topic (what is the resource about?). • What are the clues on the resource that show that (how do you know it is about that). • Write a brief history that led to the creation of the resource (use your notes or textbook). • Explain how the source relates to the topic (How do they connect). • Decide whether the source represents a uniter or divider and explain (Hint: It is both).

  6. Short Answer Assignment • Answer the two questions in a formal paragraph form; spelling and grammar will be graded. Each response will have to be at least 100 words long. Students will answer the following questions: • What were the forces that led Americans on divergent (different) paths? • How did the issue of slavery affect the nation economically and politically? • Turn in on a separate sheet of paper.
