The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo ended the Mexican-American War, but it did not end tensions between the two nations. The activity provides learners with an opportunity to practical historical analysis with text experts from the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. Budding scholars work in groups to review the text, read articles, complete a jigsaw, and participate in group discussion to understand the impact of the treaty on the United States and Mexico.
