Inquiry Activity on Empresario Grants During the Mexican Period


Students:
  • Did an activity called "Hi, Empresario!" They pretended they were empresarios during the 1820s and carved out a colony in whatever part of Texas they chosen.
  • Displayed their maps to one another and defended each as the best 
  • Examined a blank map of actual empresario grants and hypothesized as to the order in which they were chosen

Assignment - For Friday: Finish your hypotheses on the blank map of actual empresario grants.
