This Civil Rights Movement lesson investigates how Jim Crow education laws were changed by the Brown v Topeka case, Little Rock and James Meredith. Each case study is examined and an account is written at the end to show how the cases link together.

This download includes a fully editable powerpoint with all activities, instructions, clip links and worksheets/information sheets you need. It is differentiated 2/3 ways where possible with scaffolding and challenge options and is fully planned with plenty of activities for your students to complete including a starter, clip questions/activities, song analysis, mini plenaries, groupwork information sheets with table to complete, case studies, a consolidation written question and thinking plenary questions about what happened to our case study people (students always like the personal touch!).

Activities are planned to encourage thinking and discussion.

There are many more great Civil Rights lessons, including the Jim Crow Laws, the KKK and Martin Luther King, available here (with many more are on their way!):
