The Pack contains associated resources for the learning experience, typically in the form of articles and videos. There is a teacher Pack (with only teacher information) and a student Pack (which contains only student information). As a teacher, you can toggle between both to see everything.
Here are the teacher pack items for The Great Awakening:
Overview In this experience, students learn about the First Great Awakening, its impact on colonial society, and its role as a long-term cause of the American Revolution. They are introduced to Jonathan Edwards, George Whitefield, and Phillis Wheatley. Objective:
Religion was a shaping force for most of the original thirteen colonies, each with its own history. In the mid-eighteenth century, a religious revival began to spread across the colonies, and it had a major impact on colonial society. Today, we call this movement the First Great Awakening, to distinguish it from the Second Great Awakening, a similar movement that arose a century later.

If one or more students post the word “revival,” ask them to explain a connection between awakening and revival. If no one posted “revival,” mention the word and ask students if they know what it means in the context of evangelism.
