What standards are covered?

These Early 20th Century Task Cards are specifically aligned with the 2023 Virginia U.S. History SOL USII.5, although the task cards closely match most U.S. History standards related to the major events, people, and policies of the early 20th Century.

Is a digital version included?

This Early 20th Century Task Cards resource includes BOTH a digital version and a PDF version. The digital version can be accessed through Google Forms, allowing students to easily self-check their work. You can also use the Google Forms task cards to track student progress.

When you purchase this product, you will receive a link to open the file in Google Forms. You’ll then share that file with your students.

What if I want to create my own social studies task cards?

Four blank task cards are included so that you can create additional questions, if needed. For these task cards, you will print the blank cards and write your questions directly on the cards.

Other Information:

I recommend printing these task cards in color and laminating so that they can easily be reused from year to year, although this is not necessary. These task cards also print and are easy to read in grayscale.
