When introducing students to documents or historical time periods, it's essential to get them familiar with common terminology at the start of the lesson! One of the great ways to engage students with new vocabulary is to have them create a visual vocabulary board. This activity focuses on vocabulary from The Declaration of Independence, however you can use this activity for other key terminology of the time!
