Cut on the dashed lines and recycle the paper below them. Stack pages 1 to 6 with the shortest on top and staple at the top, then have students read each passage and answer the direction on that layer, such as writing why the Emancipation Proclamation mattered.

After a title layer, Early Life, Becoming a Leader, The Civil War and Famous Words each give a short fact passage with lines to write on; The Civil War layer covers the Emancipation Proclamation of 1863 and his death on April 15, 1865.
