World History & Economics- Karl Marx Communist Manifesto Excerpts for Annotation

It's time to bring more Primary Sources into your class, and this is the perfect one to start. I have selected key excerpts from the Communist Manifesto so you don't have to. I have also footnooted difficult words with appropriate definitions, and made this visually appealing to the reader. You also receive an annotation guide that allows students to mark up the text. This not only helps them make connections and interpret information, but it also allows you as the teacher to see a visual representation of their thinking.

The box is appropriately sized to cut out and paste into a composition notebook for teachers that are doing interactive notebooks.

Included in this package are:
• Karl Marx Communist Manifesto excerpts sheet

• A second version of the excerpts reworded for struggling readers

• An annotation guide that helps students use the reading

• An activity guide of how I use this activity in my class
