Bloomed Questions: The Significance of Individuals to a Movement
Questions are tiered and designed for the teacher to distribute among students based on their
learning styles or reading readiness levels. All students are expected to answer the knowledge and
comprehension questions and then the teacher can determine which students work with the
remaining questions and activities.
Knowledge:
What is the name of the leader you are studying?
What cause is the leader championing?
Comprehension:
How does the leader feel about violent vs. non-violent intervention to promote his/her cause?
Application:
Given what you’ve read about this individual, how would he/she respond to today’s violence on
television? Would he/she support censorship?
Read the first amendment of the constitution. How would this individual interpret the first
amendment as it relates to media violence?
Analysis:
Describe leadership qualities you admired in the leader your studied. Read background information
on a second leader from this lesson and compare their leadership skills. How are their personalities
similar? How are they different?
Describe life experiences that inspired the leader to fight for his/her cause.
Synthesis:
Think about the leadership qualities each of these individuals possessed and their unique life
experiences that inspired their passion for their cause. Based on this information, create a
brief biography or character sketch for the ideal leader to fight for one of the causes listed
