INQUIRY-BASED LEARNING<br />
ANTICIPATORY ACTIVITY UNIT OPENER<br />
Begin with Student Workbooks closed.<br />
Inquiry-Based Learning<br />
Tell students they are starting a new chapter about the Cold War.<br />
Write “The Cold War” on your whiteboard.<br />
Have students develop questions about the Cold War:<br />
• Students spend the first few minutes writing questions independently.<br />
• Then the class or small groups collaborate to create a question board.<br />
• Give students time to think of new questions that build on the questions<br />
already shared.<br />
Examples of questions your students might create:<br />
• Why is it called the Cold War?<br />
• What countries was it between?<br />
• What was it about?<br />
• Who won?<br />
• How many people died?<br />
• When was it?<br />
• How long did it last?<br />
• Where was it?<br />
• Was the U.S. involved?<br />
• How did it start? How did it end?<br />
• Are those countries enemies or friends today?<br />
• Was it a world war?<br />
• What equipment/technology/planes/etc., did they use?<br />
• If somebody won, what did they get?<br />
• If somebody lost, what did they lose?<br />

SOCIAL STUDIES THEMES<br />
ENDURING UNDERSTANDINGS<br />
Social Studies Themes<br />
These themes provide the underlying framework for many important “big picture” concepts<br />
that your students will be learning throughout this unit. Use the questions to help students<br />
apply what they learn about the Cold War toward their understanding of these Enduring<br />
Understandings throughout the unit.<br />
CULTURE<br />
Culture is how people think, act, celebrate, and make<br />
rules, and that is what makes a group of people special.<br />
How did the Cold War impact American culture?<br />
INDIVIDUALS, GROUPS, & INSTITUTIONS<br />
What people, groups, and institutions say and do can help<br />
or harm others—whether they mean to or not.<br />
How did individuals, groups, and institutions react to the Cold War and the potential<br />
spread of Communism in the United States?<br />
BELIEFS & IDEALS<br />
People’s ideas and feelings influence their decisions.<br />
How did beliefs and ideals affect American society during the Cold War era?<br />
SAMPLE<br />
CONFLICT & CHANGE<br />
Conflict causes change.<br />
What global changes occurred as a result of the Cold War conflict?<br />
TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATIONS<br />
New technology has many different consequences,<br />
depending on how people use that technology.<br />
What technological innovations developed during the Cold War era? Why?<br />
How did technological innovation impact the Cold War?<br />
How did innovations affect the role of media in the Cold War era?<br />

CHAPTER 11<br />
GEORGIA EXPERIENCE | GRADE 5 | UNIT 5<br />
THE COLD WAR BEGINS<br />
CHAPTER OPENER<br />
Inquiry-Based Learning<br />
1. Divide students into small groups.<br />
Give each group a sheet of poster paper with one of these questions written on it:<br />
• Why does conflict occur?<br />
• Who should make the rules?<br />
• How do beliefs impact actions?<br />
2. Tell students to brainstorm possible answers to the question and to write them on their<br />
group’s poster. Walk around and make sure all students are given the opportunity to share<br />
ideas. Allow your students to have 10 minutes to work on this brainstorming activity.<br />
3. As a class, discuss the questions and students’ answers:<br />
• Start with: Was it easy or hard to think of answers? Why?<br />
• Let groups take turns sharing their responses.<br />
(Tell students not to repeat answers already said by another group.)<br />
• As students share answers, write them on your whiteboard to create a<br />
comprehensive list.<br />
• Rotate through groups until all answers have been shared.<br />
SAMPLE<br />
4. Once you have finished your class discussion, tape their responses to a central location<br />
so students may revisit their responses while working through “The Cold War Era Begins”<br />
chapter.<br />
5. Periodically throughout this unit, review the questions as a class and have students suggest<br />
additions and changes to the original answers based on what they have learned. Have<br />
students write their new responses with different-colored markers so that they will be able to<br />
identify when changes were made to their original responses.<br />
6. Review these posters and answers again at the end of the chapter as part of your review.<br />
Use your classroom technology to customize how you do this activity.<br />
• Students can digitally post their answers to a class discussion page.<br />
• Groups can post answers on digital sticky notes, and you can consolidate them on<br />
a single board.<br />

GEORGIA EXPERIENCE | GRADE 5 | UNIT 5<br />
THE BERLIN WALL<br />
At the end of WWII, the Allied Powers wanted to be sure that Germany did not<br />
rebuild its military and attempt to take over Europe again. So, the Allied Powers<br />
divided both Germany and its capital city of Berlin into four parts.<br />
Leveled Literacy<br />
The U.S., Great Britain, France, and the Soviet Union each selected one section of<br />
Germany and one section of Berlin to oversee. Each country sent military forces to<br />
occupy and manage their territories.<br />
The Americans, British, and French occupied the three most western parts of Germany<br />
and Berlin. The Soviet Union occupied the<br />
eastern parts of Germany and Berlin.<br />
Over time, the three western regions merged<br />
together, forming West Germany and<br />
West Berlin. West Germany established a<br />
new democratic government and capitalist<br />
economy like that of its occupiers.<br />
Once this stability was in place, the<br />
American, British, and French forces left<br />
West Germany so German citizens could<br />
rebuild their lives and country.<br />
The Soviet Union established a communist and authoritarian government in East<br />
Germany, similar to the structure of other countries in the region that it also occupied.<br />
Soviet military forces did not actually leave East Germany and East Berlin but<br />
remained there in control.<br />
SAMPLE<br />
Under Soviet rule, East Germans were only allowed to travel to other communist<br />
countries. But democratic West Berlin sat right in the middle of East Germany!<br />
To prevent East Germans from traveling to West Berlin to escape communism and<br />
the power of the Soviet Union, the Soviets built a massive, fortified wall surrounding<br />
West Berlin. The Soviets controlled who went in and out of West Berlin! Except for by<br />
airplane, nothing could go in or out of West Berlin without going through communistcontrolled<br />
East Germany.<br />
How did the wall affect people in East Berlin?<br />
How did the wall affect people in West Berlin?<br />

CHAPTER 11<br />
NAME: _____________________________________________<br />
GEORGIA EXPERIENCE | GRADE 5 | UNIT 5<br />
THE BERLIN WALL<br />
The Allies won World War II. Germany and Japan lost. The Allies told Germany it could not<br />
make a new army. The Allies did not want Germany to start a new war.<br />
Leveled Literacy<br />
Who would make Germany obey the Allies’ rules? The Allies would!<br />
Four Allies took charge. They split Germany<br />
into four parts. They split Germany’s capital<br />
city, Berlin, into four parts too. Each Ally<br />
was in charge of one part. Each Ally sent its<br />
army to its part.<br />
The four Allies in charge were:<br />
• The United States<br />
• France<br />
• Great Britain<br />
• The Soviet Union<br />
The United States, France, and Great Britain helped their three parts form a new<br />
country. The new country was called West Germany. The new capital was called West Berlin.<br />
People had many rights and freedoms in their new country. West Germany was a democracy.<br />
That means people can vote! People in West Germany could choose how to use their<br />
money. That is called capitalism.<br />
SAMPLE<br />
East Germany was not like West Germany. The Soviet Union was in control of East Germany.<br />
East Germany was communist. The government had authority to make the rules.<br />
People in East Germany did not get rights and freedoms. The Soviet Union kept control.<br />
East Germans were not allowed to go to West Germany or West Berlin.<br />
Why not? East Germans were not allowed to go to places with democracy.<br />
Why not? The Soviet Union did not want East Germans to leave and not come back.<br />
There was a problem: West Berlin was in the middle of East Germany.<br />
The Soviet Union built a very tall wall around West Berlin. East German soldiers worked at<br />
the wall. They decided who could enter and who could exit.<br />
How did the wall affect people in East Berlin?<br />
How did the wall affect people in West Berlin?<br />

GEORGIA EXPERIENCE | GRADE 5 | UNIT 5<br />
PRIMARY SOURCE ANALYSIS<br />
TEACHER NOTES<br />
Primary Source Analysis<br />
Before World War II, Japan ruled the Korean peninsula as<br />
its colony. When Japan lost the war, the Allies made Japan<br />
give up its colony. But the Allies had to decide what to do<br />
with the Korean Peninsula. The U.S. and the Soviet Union<br />
agreed to divide the peninsula along the 38th parallel of<br />
latitude. The Soviets occupied the northern half, and the<br />
U.S. occupied the southern half.<br />
In the Korean War, the north and south regions fought<br />
over control of the whole peninsula. After three years, they agreed<br />
to stop fighting. The ceasefire left the dividing line very close to where it had started, and even<br />
though it does not run exactly along the 38th parallel, it crosses it.<br />
To avoid constant fighting along the border, two kilometers on each side of the line that<br />
separates North Korea and South Korea were designated as a demilitarized zone (DMZ).<br />
This area is considered neutral, and it is off-limits to most people.<br />
The areas north and south of the DMZ are heavily fortified. But inside this four-kilometer strip<br />
that stretches across the peninsula, nature has taken over! The DMZ is one of the most natural,<br />
undeveloped areas in Asia. Thousands of birds, fish, and mammals, many endangered, live here.<br />
The boundary line is marked off by 1,292 identical signs, placed at intervals across the<br />
peninsula. US COB 728MP stands for the U.S. 728 th Military Police Battalion Company B,<br />
which has provided security and order along the border since the end of the Korean War.<br />
The north-facing side of the signs are written in Korean and Chinese, and the south-facing<br />
sides are written in Korean and English. Today, the signs are aging and rusting.<br />
SAMPLE<br />
POSSIBLE STUDENT OBSERVATIONS:<br />
(You can prompt for some of these with questions if needed.)<br />
• rural; evidence = no buildings<br />
• hilly/mountainous<br />
• dry; evidence = dust, no trees<br />
• sign looks older than signs today<br />
• trucks could be military or moving dirt and rocks<br />
• sign is in English<br />
With additional information from teacher notes, students can deduce:<br />
• the trucks are traveling from North Korea to South Korea<br />
• the trucks are probably military vehicles because the area is too dangerous for<br />
anyone else to be allowed here<br />

TRYING TO<br />
CONTAIN COMMUNISM<br />
CHAPTER OPENER<br />
Inquiry-Based Learning<br />
1. Ask students: Where did the events of the Cold War we learned about so far take place?<br />
(Correct answers are Europe and Asia)<br />
2. Ask students to describe the overall mood in America up until now.<br />
As they do, write key words on your whiteboard.<br />
(Answers will likely include terms like strong, successful, powerful, determined, winning, etc.)<br />
If needed, remind students:<br />
• The U.S. had recently emerged from World War II as a world power.<br />
• The U.S. was cooperating with most of our Allies, but not Russia.<br />
• The U.S. had successfully helped Berlin with the airlifts.<br />
• The U.S. helped form NATO to unite democratic countries against communism.<br />
• The U.S. had also helped South Korea hold strong to its territory against China and<br />
North Korea, even pushing North Korea far north for a short time.<br />
3. Say: In this next stage of the Cold War, a new feeling crept in the mix. Who can guess<br />
what that feeling or emotion was?<br />
• As students call out guesses, write them down and say “possibly,” “yes,” or “close.”<br />
• When someone calls out “fear” (or afraid/scared), write that word big, circle it, and say,<br />
“Let’s talk more about fear.”<br />
4. Ask students to recall a time when they were afraid or scared of something.<br />
Ask for volunteers to share their fear with the class.<br />
You may need to start the conversation by describing a time you were afraid of something to<br />
make your students comfortable enough to share with their classmates.<br />
As students share their experiences, write descriptive words of their fears on the whiteboard.<br />
You may want to conclude this opening discussion with how everyone has fears and is afraid<br />
of something, no matter how big or small.<br />
SAMPLE<br />
5. Tell students:<br />
• We are going to be learning about the fears Americans developed during the<br />
Cold War.<br />
• We will explore major fears that caused wide-spread panic throughout America.<br />
• We will investigate how Americans dealt with these fears—sometimes in ways<br />
that were productive and sometimes in ways that were harmful.<br />
• We will examine how America’s leaders dealt with Cold War fears, too.<br />

Write a news release to express the concerns of a possible nuclear war!<br />
Use the inverted triangle writing style popular in news articles: lead off with the most important<br />
facts and details first. Include who, what, when, where, and why. You can include first-hand<br />
accounts and quotes from people who witnessed the event, facts and statistics, or other details<br />
of what was seen, heard, or experienced. Don’t forget to give your story a catchy headline.<br />
You can report the news from any perspective, but describe your perspective on the back of the<br />
sheet (who you are, where you are, who your readers are, and when you are reporting).<br />

CHAPTER 12<br />
GEORGIA EXPERIENCE | GRADE 5 | UNIT 5<br />
PRIMARY SOURCE ANALYSIS<br />
TEACHER NOTES<br />
Primary Source Analysis<br />
Tell students: We are going to do a Think-Pair-Share activity while we view a series of Cold War<br />
images. Project the “American Home Front in the Cold War” series of images from the Multimedia<br />
Gallery.<br />
As you show each image, give students time to analyze what they see.<br />
Then give them 60 seconds to share their observations with a neighbor.<br />
Allow groups to share their responses with the class before moving to the next image.<br />
Once you have shown all the “American Home Front in the Cold War” series of images, give students time<br />
to complete the Primary Analysis Student Observations and Conclusions Sheet. Discuss as a class.<br />
Finally, connect the discussion back to the beginning of the chapter conversation about fear. Have<br />
students use their observations and analysis to predict and describe the fears they think are developing in<br />
America. Record their responses on your whiteboard. Ask students for clarification as needed, and praise<br />
students for applying logical or creative thinking skills.<br />
ADDITIONAL FACTS TO SHARE:<br />
• Ordinary Americans built bomb shelters in their backyards.<br />
• Bomb shelters ranged in cost from $100 to as much as $5,000 for an underground suite with phone and toilet.<br />
• Some people estimate that hundreds of thousands of personal shelters were built in the 1950s and early 1960s.<br />
• Civil defense films instructed people on what supplies to stock in their shelter. Items recommended included<br />
beans, bread, canned water, battery-powered radios, books, board games, and a pack of tranquilizers to reduce<br />
the stress of being stuck inside a small space for several weeks.<br />
• In major cities, some public buildings large enough to hold thousands of people were designated as fall-out<br />
shelters and stocked with supplies.<br />
• A farmer in Iowa built a fallout shelter for 200 cows.<br />
• Millions of comic books were distributed to school children featuring a cartoon turtle called Bert who urged<br />
them to “duck and cover” in the event of an atomic strike. Bert’s safety strategy was lie flat on the ground,<br />
shield your eyes with one arm, and protect your head with the other arm.<br />
• Many schools issued students metal identification tags similar to military dogtags.<br />
• Schools had frequent bomb drills, frightening students because they never knew whether it was a drill or real<br />
danger.<br />
• Spotters were assigned to watch the skies for anything that looked suspicious or out of the ordinary.<br />
• Hollywood produced nuclear war doomsday films, including On The Beach, The Last Man On Earth, The Day the<br />
World Ended, Atomic Kid, and Dr. Strangelove.<br />
• One of the most popular toys of the time were miniature A-bombs. Kids inserted a gunpowder cap inside the<br />
toy. When the toy bomb hit the ground, there was a loud pop!<br />
SAMPLE<br />
Propaganda: Some of these images might look funny to us today. But, at the time, people’s fears<br />
were very real. The government tried to reduce fear and panic, and many of the images published by<br />
government agencies showed a much rosier picture than reality. At times, the government encouraged<br />
people to build shelters that today (and probably then) we know would not have provided much<br />
protection. Other times, the government warned that a shoddy homemade shelter could broil its<br />
occupants “to a crisp” or squeeze them “like grapefruit.” Either way, the expectations of what the<br />
shelters could achieve seems pretty far-fetched. But for many people, there was a lot of comfort in taking<br />
whatever action they had and feeling prepared in the event their fears really came true.<br />

THE VIETNAM WAR<br />
CHAPTER OPENER<br />
Inquiry-Based Learning<br />
1. Before starting Chapter 13, have your students interact with a mini-lesson that has them<br />
taking a clear stance on their opinion of pizza.<br />
2. On your whiteboard, draw a chart with two columns. Label one column that says “Love<br />
Pizza” and another column that says “Hate Pizza.”<br />
3. Next, poll your class to discover how many students either love or hate pizza. First,<br />
determine who loves pizza, and then draw tally marks on your whiteboard in the correct<br />
column. Then, determine who hates pizza, and then draw tally marks on your whiteboard in<br />
the correct column.<br />
4. After you have polled your students:<br />
• Tell your students: How does it make you feel knowing that there are<br />
students in this class that feel differently than you do about pizza?<br />
• Call on several students and have them express their opinion with the class<br />
by answering why they either love or hate pizza.<br />
• After several students have shared, conclude the opening activity by tying<br />
in that Americans were split over the Vietnam War and that thousands of<br />
Americans protested the war.<br />
• If needed, explain what a protest is so that students can draw on this<br />
knowledge during the chapter. Consider displaying an image of a peaceful<br />
protest with signs.<br />
SAMPLE<br />
5. After you have completed this activity with your students, have them open their Student<br />
Workbook to page 72 and have them begin.<br />
Use your classroom technology to customize how you do this activity.<br />
• Flip the assignment, and have your students work on this activity prior to class.<br />
• Create a discussion board on your website that students can respond to and<br />
interact with one another.<br />
• When students arrive the following day for instruction, review their comments as a<br />
class, and then continue with the tie-in aspect of this activity to begin the chapter.<br />
