We have been studying through the nineteenth century. One of the central
events that happened during the latter half of the century was the
explosion of colonialism and the great powers rush to gain colonies.
Today, we will look at the growth of colonialism and the different types
and forms of it. Also, we will talk about the effects that it had then and the
lasting effects of imperialism.
Learning Tasks (Procedures):
1 Teacher will begin slide show.
2 Teacher will pass out the handouts that include the primary sources

imperialism in Africa

statistics as examples of how colonialism affected the Africa

time

sources White Mans Burden and Black Mans Burden.

continue with the group activity Imperial Control Jigsaw
9 Each group will be given a different type of imperialist style as each
great power had their own method of governing: Direct Rule, Indirect
Rule, Protectorate or Sphere of Influence.
10 Each group will study their assigned method and find examples of
each.
11 After 15 minutes, these groups will be broken off into new groups
12 The students will then use the knowledge gained from their previous
group to teach the new group about that form of imperialism.
Closure:
1 Teacher ask some students to describe what they learned in their
group activity, being sure to have at least one student from each group
speak.
2 Teacher will invite discussion by asking the students to compare and
contrast the positive and negative effects of imperialism
3 The Teacher will allow ample time for discussion and guide it if
necessary.
Differentiated Instruction:
Enrichment: Ask students to analyze each country that took part in
imperialism. Have students use the textbook and maps to discover
which powers had the most and least influence.
Intervention: The teacher will allow the students ample time to finish
all the work. The teacher will also discuss with struggling students the

primary documents in addition to them reading them alone, being sure


to cover each document thoroughly.
Accommodation: Students will have material presented visually on
the board as well as copies of the notes being given. Students will be
paired by the teacher during group activity to be sure that struggling
students are paired with high preforming students who can act as peer
tutors.
