rubric
3 included groups + 3 excluded groups + accurate identification of specific exclusion language
Hints
- Read the citizenship language carefully - which words name 'who counts as a citizen'?
- Excluded groups: think about Indigenous nations, African Americans, women of all communities, Asian immigrants.
Misconceptions to watch
- Missing the explicit exclusion language
- Treating statehood as 'all included'
- Failing to identify which communities were excluded
