Class experience
US Grade 7 - 10
The saying goes that a picture is worth a thousand words. When studying history, that couldn't be more true. While this family image has become one of the classic images of the Vietnam War Era, the true story of the Stirm family is anything but the emotions that are captured in this picture. In this class, we will take a brief look at the Vietnam War, explore what life was like for many of the P.O.W.'s, and what happened to many when they returned home. We'll explore the life of the Stirm...
Learners will take a brief look at the Vietnam War and it's effect on soldiers and families.
I have been an educator on Outschool since February of 2018. I have my MBA and MHA, both of which have taught me the value of conducting research and asking questions. I have a passion for history, organization, reading, and learning. You can usually find me in the middle of 2-3 books or watching a documentary. I am also an Outschool ACE Educator, which means that I continually seek out ways to improve my teaching skills and knowledge, as well as the learner experience. Some of the seminars/courses that I have attended in the past are: Foundations for Teaching and Learning About Native Americans; The Presence and Absence of Asian America: What Truths Lie Beyond the Headlines; Using the “Diary of Anne Frank” to Amplify Students’ Voices; Painting a Just Picture – Art and Activism.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
There may be some Youtube videos that are seen during this class. I will share my screen and learners will not need to access them on their own. This class will be covering the Vietnam War, so there will be discussions of violence and torture. All discussions will be at an age appropriate level.
