Learner prompts

Target: identify what a peace treaty can establish and an issue it leaves open. Prepare: Card D, source compass and timeline.

  1. Launch · 2 min. Ask whether a treaty between governments is a diary of everyone's experience.
  2. Model · 4 min. Card D's Article 1 records British recognition of the United States as independent; label its signatories and 1783 date.
  3. Guided reading · 5 min. Compare A's 1776 declaration with D's 1783 external recognition. Ask how each answers a different question.
  4. Practice route · 7 min. Choose a Day 7 route. Write one continuity/change note across A and D and a source limit.
  5. Audit · 4 min. Partner says “the treaty gave every resident equal rights”; learner repairs to the government-level recognition the excerpt supports.
  6. Exit · 3 min. “Which source is stronger for what Britain formally acknowledged?” Key: D; A states the colonists' public position.
