Synopsis

Dive into the strife, conflict, and fractures that caused our universal divide during the American Civil War.

These simulations empower students to participate in their own active learning and provide the opportunity to make connections to present-day life. This must-have resource is perfect to support students' deep learning and use of higher-order thinking skills. Support materials include planning documents, templates, graphic organizers, background information, and more!

About Shell Education
Rachelle Cracchiolo started the company with a friend and fellow teacher. Both were eager to share their ideas and passion for education with other classroom leaders. What began as a hobby, selling lesson plans to local stores, became a part-time job after a full day of teaching, and eventually blossomed into Teacher Created Materials. The story continued in 2004 with the launch of Shell Education and the introduction of professional resources and classroom application books designed to support Teacher Created Materials curriculum resources. Today, Teacher Created Materials and Shell Education are two of the most recognized names in educational publishing around the world.
