Students will start off reading about Lester Maddox in the textbook and complete the comprehension questions that go along with the reading. Students will be involved in the lesson by engaging in the slide presentation. Students will be given notes on Lester Maddox and his opposition to the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The teacher will go through the slide presentation explaining Georgia’s resistance to the Civil Rights Act of 1964, specifically Lester Maddox’s role in fighting back against the Civil Rights Act. When this is completed, students will reflect on the lesson by writing about their thoughts on Lester Maddox and the change he went through later in his life. This will be done on the back of their comprehension questions.
