Teach your American history students about the indigenous peoples of the Western Hemisphere (Native Americans), the encounters the native had with the Spanish explorers, and the Age of Exploration. This lesson teaches about Native American tribes like the Anasazi, Mississippians (who built Cahokia), Lenape Delaware People, Aztec Empire, and more. Then it goes into detail about the Age of Exploration with an emphasis on the Spanish arrival in the New World.
Other topics presented include the Age of Exploration, Encomienda System, Columbian Exchange, and more. Throughout the presentation, there are plenty of discussion opportunities. For example, when discussing the ways the Spaniards treated the Native Americans, students can decide if they agree that the treatment was as bad as the history books say it was or was it indeed a "Black Legend" designed to humiliate the Spanish. Lots of great "thinking like a historian" opportunities.
To make this PowerPoint (Google Slides) lesson more interactive, students are provided with questions they need to answer while you present the material. It also includes a primary source activity. So, this lesson is much more than just a PPT.
This curriculum is great for social studies and history teachers. The design is professional and minimal (i.e., no death by PPT). You can make changes to the PPT if you deem it necessary. This presentation can be used in Microsoft PowerPoint or Google Slides.
