Our class has been watching parts of the Ken Burns film and we stop at every heading to write and draw.  Students are asked to take notes while watching the film, reflect on the questions I have provided for them, and then to draw a picture illustrating what they have taken notes over or reflected upon.  I attached some extra info and coloring pages (from the books given to us by Westward Waters) in the back of the handouts.  My students really like this activity.  I'm turning into a "Hal" I have to add little tidbits whenever I can.  These pictures show a couple of my students writing in their journals.
