Pre-Requisites: What is the prior knowledge students have to have before starting this Unit?

connect your lessons with students’ backgrounds: languages, abilities, and local culture(s), and how this Unit
creates opportunities for students to have more equal and authentic access to “mainstream” culture regarding the
content of your Unit.
The unit starts with students own understandings of equality and segregation. Students then learn about how
Americans in the mid 1900’s saw segregation and viewed a need for equality. Students compare their
understandings to their learning. Discussions throughout the unit have students reflect on their learning and
their own view of the Civil Rights Movement.
The unit connects the acts approved during the Civil Rights Movement with the laws we have today in
American society. Students learn not only how the laws came to be but why they came to be and how the laws
were necessary for Americans today. Students with cultures common outside of the US are taught how America
views equality and the laws we have in place to ensure equality.
