Beyond the Bubble unlocks the vast digital archive of the Library of Congress to create History Assessments of Thinking (HATs). Explore over 140 easy-to-use assessments that measure students' historical thinking rather than recall of facts. There are 10 “flagship” assessments, each marked with a ribbon. Flagship assessments (e.g., The First Thanksgiving) have extended features, including annotated sample student responses and “Going Deeper” videos that provide insights into the assessments and ideas for how to use them. The rest of the assessments are “alternative version” assessments (e.g., Napoleon’s Retreat). Each alternative version assessment features different Library of Congress documents but takes the same form as its flagship. Even if you don't use the flagship assessment, the student responses and videos are useful for understanding the alternative versions. Beyond the Bubble was created with the support of the Library of Congress’s Teaching with Primary Sources (TPS) program.
Reading Like a Historian
The Reading Like a Historian curriculum engages students in historical inquiry. Each lesson revolves around a central historical question and features a set of primary documents designed for groups of students with a range of reading skills.
This curriculum teaches students how to investigate historical questions by employing reading strategies such as sourcing, contextualizing, corroborating, and close reading. Instead of memorizing historical facts, students evaluate the trustworthiness of multiple perspectives on historical issues and learn to make historical claims backed by documentary evidence. To learn more about how to use Reading Like a Historian lessons, watch these videos about how teachers use these materials in their classrooms.

Central Question What were the attitudes of settlement house social reformers towards immigrants?
Our Assignment: Settlement House Textbook Revision Some historians argue that settlement house workers were generous and helpful, while other historians argue they were condescending assimilationists. Your textbook company is publishing a new edition of their US History textbook and wants to revise this section of the textbook after reviewing different people’s ideas about this topic. Write an email to the publishing company that makes a one-sided argument (an “interpretation”) in response to the question, “What were the attitudes of settlement house social reformers’ towards immigrants?” Defend your claim using evidence and reasoning.

Document A : American Vision Textbook Excerpts (fill in focus bookmark question) Headnote : The excerpt below comes from a 2003 version of The American Vision, a US History textbook published by McGraw Hill Publishing. McGraw Hill is one of the largest textbook publishing companies in the country. The Social Gospel Document A: Textbook Excerpts From about 1870 until 1920, reformers in the Social Gospel movement worked to better conditions in cities according to the biblical ideals of charity and justice. An early advocate of the Social Gospel, Washington Gladden, a minister from Columbus, Ohio, tried to apply what he called “Christian law” to social problems. . . . Walter Rauschenbusch, a Baptist minister who spent nine years serving in a church in one of New York City’s poorest neighborhoods, later led the Social Gospel movement. As he put it, “The Church must either condemn the world and seek to change it, or tolerate the world and conform to it.” Unlike Social Darwinists, Rauschenbusch believed that competition was the cause of many social problems, causing good people to behave badly. The Settlement House Movement In a way, the settlement house movement was an offshoot of the Social Gospel movement. It attracted idealistic reformers who believed it was their Christian duty to improve living conditions for the poor. During the late 1800s, reformers such as Jane Addams established settlement houses in poor neighborhoods. In these establishments, middle-class residents lived and helped poor residents, mostly immigrants. Addams, who opened the famous Hull House in Chicago in 1889, inspired many more such settlements across the country, including the Henry Street Settlement run by Lillian Wald in New York City. The women who ran settlement houses provided everything from medical care, recreation programs, and English classes to hot lunches for factory workers. Their efforts helped shape the social work profession, in which women came to play a major role. “We renew our pledge of devotion to the cause of complete United Nations’ victory. We reaffirm our pledge of unity with the workers and the plain people of all nations, including the occupied nations, in the common struggle for freedom and for life itself.” Attribution: Appleby, J., Brinkley, A., Broussard, A., McPherson, J., & Ritchie, D., The American Vision, 2003 .

Document B: The Spirit of Youth and City Streets One Sunday night at twelve o’clock I had occasion to go into a large public dance hall. As I was standing by the rail looking for the girl I had come to find, a young man approached me and quite simply asked me to introduce him to some “nice girl,” saying that he did not know anyone there. When I replied that a public dance hall was not the best place in which to look for a nice girl, he said: “But I don’t know any other place where there is a chance to meet any kind of a girl. I’m awfully lonesome since I came to Chicago.” And then he added rather defiantly : “Some nice girls do come here. It’s one of the best halls in town.” . . . The public dance halls filled with . . . irresponsible young people in a feverish search for pleasure, are but a sorry substitute for the old dances on the village green in which all of the older people in the village participated. Chaperonage then was not a social duty but natural and inevitable. . . . Let us know the modern city in its . . . wickedness, and then seek to . . . purify it until it shall be free from the grosser temptations which now beset the young people who are living in its tenement houses and working in its factories. …think, want, and experience… Headnote : A large number of dance halls opened in American cities in the early 1900s. The venues offered hours of inexpensive entertainment and were popular among working class young people, many of whom were immigrants. Many social reformers found these dance halls to be inappropriate and pushed to create alternative forms of entertainment for youth, like amusement parks.

Document C: Dance Halls The dances are short – four to five minutes; the intermissions are long – fifteen to twenty minutes; thus ample opportunity is given for drinking… In these same halls obscene language is permitted, and even the girls… carry on indecent conversation, using much profanity, while the less sophisticated girls stand around listening, scandalized but fascinated… Many of the halls are poorly lighted. There is a very little protection in case of fire… A city law should be passed covering the following points:… 2. All dance halls should be made to comply with the regulations of the Building and Fire Departments to ensure proper sanitation and adequate fire protection… 3. The sale of liquor in dance halls or in buildings connected with them should be prohibited… 7. No immoral dancing or familiarity should be tolerated. 8. People under the influence of liquor or known prostitutes should not be permitted in dance halls… 11. There should be an inspector of dance halls who should have in his department a corps of assistants who would regularly inspect the halls and make reports concerning them to him weekly.

Document D: Immigrants and Their Children An Italian girl who has had lessons in cooking will help her mother to connect the entire family with American food and household habits. That the mother has never baked bread in Italy – only mixed it in her own house and then taken it out to the village oven – makes all the more valuable her daughter’s understanding of the complicated cooking stove. The same thing is true of the girl who learns to sew, and more than anything else, perhaps, of the girl who receives the first simple instruction in the care of little children – that skillful care which every tenement-house baby requires if he is to live through his second summer…. Through civic instruction in the public schools, the Italian woman slowly becomes urbanized… and the habits of her entire family were modified. The public schools in the immigrant neighborhoods deserve all the praise as Americanizing agencies. (fill in focus bookmark question) Headnote : The following text is an excerpt from Chapter 11 of Jane Addam’s book, Twenty Years at Hull-House, (1910). The book was part autobiography and part description and defense of her work as a settlement house social reformer. Attribution: Excerpt from Jane Addams’s book, Twenty Years at Hull-House, (1910). This passage comes from a chapter called “Immigrants and Their Children.”

Document E: Memories of Hull House (Modified) Several days before Christmas 1896 one of my Irish playmates suggested that I go with her to a Christmas party at Hull-House…. I asked her if there would be any Jewish children at the party. She said that there were Jewish children at the parties every year and that no one was ever hurt… The thought began to percolate that things might be different in America. In Poland it had not been safe for Jewish children to be on the streets on Christmas…. At the party, the children of the Hull-House Music School sang some songs, that I later found out were called “Christmas carols.” I shall never forget the…. Sweetness of those childish voices. All feelings of religious intolerance and bigotry faded. I could not connect this beautiful party with any hatred or superstition that existed among the people of Poland. As I look back, I know that I became an American at this party. I was with children who had been brought here from all over the world. The fathers and mothers, like my father and mother, had come in search of a free and happy life. And we were all having a good time at a party, as the guests of an American, Jane Addams. …think, want, and experience… Headnote : The following is an excerpt from Hilda Satt Polacheck’s book, I came a Stranger: The Story of a Hull-House Girl , which she wrote in 1953.

Our Assignment: Settlement House Textbook Revision Some historians argue that settlement house workers were generous and helpful, while other historians argue they were condescending assimilationists. Your textbook company is publishing a new edition of their US History textbook and wants to revise this section of the textbook after reviewing different people’s ideas about this topic. Write an email to the publishing company that makes a one-sided argument (an “interpretation”) in response to the question, “What were the attitudes of settlement house social reformers’ towards immigrants?” Defend your claim using evidence and reasoning.
INTERPRETATION = CLAIM + EVIDENCE + REASONING
Reflect and Discuss What is your claim about settlement house social reformers’ attitudes towards immigrants? Why is it a strong interpretation? What evidence will support your claim? What reasoning explains how or why this evidence backs up your claim?
Mentor Text: example assignment Background: A memorial to celebrate the anniversary of the passage of the 19 th amendment is being built in your town. There will be a plaque that describes who was responsible for passing the amendment that granted women the right to vote. Write an email to your local representative that makes a claim about who was responsible for the passage of 19 th amendment.
Mentor Text: Example email to Representative Dear Local Representative, The new memorial to celebrate the 19 th amendment should highlight the efforts of women, not the efforts of male law makers. Speeches and images created during the suffrage movement show that women created the moral and legal arguments for suffrage, and it was women who organized marches and protests that influenced the public and lawmakers. Susan B. Anthony’s speech explained the moral and constitutional reasons that women should have the right to vote. In 1873, Anthony gave a speech and said that it was all people who created the United States, “not we, the while male citizens…who formed the Union. And we formed it, not to give the blessings of liberty, but to secure them; not to the half of ourselves and the half of our posterity, but to the whole people—women as well as men.” According to the headnote, her speeches were reprinted by popular newspapers. This speech explains why women should have the right to vote, it was heard by many people, and it is reliable because it was written by someone who was alive and a member of the suffrage movement. Therefore, Anthony’s speech is a reliable source that influenced the passage of the 19 th amendment. According to the headnote of the picture of Alice Paul taken in 1913, she and the National American Woman Suffrage Association were responsible for organizing the first large march to protest for suffrage. The protest was held in Washington, D.C. and 8,000 people participated. This source corroborates the information in Anthony’s speech and makes me think both sources are reliable. In conclusion, the sources show that women led the effort to secure the right to vote by making speeches and organizing marches and protests. Therefore, because women are responsible for the 19 th amendment, their efforts should be highlighted on the new memorial.
Analyze Mentor Text What is the CLAIM in this text? Note it. What EVIDENCE (quotations, examples, facts, or details) does the author include to support the claim? Note it. Where does the author provide REASONING about the evidence? (How the evidence supports the claim, or reasoning about why the evidence is or reliable) Overall, is this a good email? If so, what makes it good? If not, how could it be improved?
