    About the book: This Civil War classic of soldiering in the ranks debunks all the romantic notions of war. Like his Northern counterpart, the Confederate soldier fought against bullets, starvation, miserable conditions, disease, and mental strain. But the experience was perhaps even worse for Johnny Reb because of the odds against him. Never as well equipped and provisioned as the Yankee, he nevertheless performed heroically.

    About the book: Benjamin Franklin excelled in the roles of diplomat, postmaster, political theorist, scientist, satirist, and musician, and yet we still know so little about his life. Fellow Philadelphian George Fisher wrote this biography in 1898—illustrated here with black and white images throughout—and it depicts a Ben Franklin not seen in other portraits of the man. Following him from his boyhood, when he first wrote articles for his brother’s Boston paper, to his years as a statesman and inventor, Fisher also deals with Franklin’s political intrigues with the British and French, as well as his illegitimate children, offering a unique perspective of this most fascinating American figure.

    This layered research assignment gives students the opportunity to delve deeply into a topic and give students a variety of tasks from which to choose, all designed to guide and build a meaningful learning experience. Also, when using this layered approach, students will move through Bloom’s Taxonomy of knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis and evaluation.

    This resource is designed to be used with 6th-12th grade students and can be used for any subject/topic.

    This resource will guide students through (step by step) three layers of research:
    * The first (bottom) layer will give students 9 tasks of which they will perform all of them. This layer will help students get a good grasp of the topic and begin to gather the materials they will need to create a great project, (knowledge and comprehension).

    * For the second (middle) layer, students are given 6 tasks of which they will choose to complete 4. Here, students will continue to gain knowledge and comprehension as well as begin applying (application), analyzing (analysis) and even some synthesizing (synthesis) of what is being learned.

    * For the third (top) layer, students are given 9 tasks of which they will choose to complete 6. This top layer of tasks is truly designed for students to move further into synthesizing and evaluating (evaluation) of the material that has been studied.

    Molly Pitcher is a nickname given to a woman said to have fought in the American Battle of Monmouth, generally believed to have been Mary Ludwig Hays McCauley. However, various Molly Pitcher tales grew in the telling, and many historians regard Molly Pitcher as folklore rather than history, or suggest that Molly Pitcher may be a composite image inspired by the actions of a number of real women. The name itself may have originated as a nickname given to women who carried water to men on the battlefield during War.
