Let's Explore History: Haunted and Creepy
Class experience
US Grade 8 - 11
I have a specialized interest in the topics covered, and I currently offer longer courses in some of the topics, such as the Salem Witch Trials and the Roanoke Colony, that the students may want to take after learning about a topic that interests them. I have done a lot of research about the topics that I teach, and I have covered them in other classes. During each weekly meeting, students will learn about a different topic from history. I will present the information and we will discuss the...
Students will gain a better understanding of these historical events, and use critical thinking to discuss and analyze the events.
I have over twenty years of experience teaching rhetoric writing, reading, language arts, and critical thinking skills. I am familiar with the material, and have the experience to foster meaningful learning. I have been teaching English, Language Arts, History, ESOL, reading, and writing for twenty years. I have taught all levels of secondary English, Social Studies, and History, both in-person and online. I currently teach longer, more in depth courses on some of the topics that we will cover in this course. I have done a lot of research into these topics, because they interest me, and my students find unusual history fascinating. I have a degree in English Teaching, and I enjoy teaching students how to explore historical events through written material. As an English teacher, I have taught students to read and critically analyze differentiating opinions about fictional works and non-fictional topics and arrive at a substantiated belief. In addition, I have taught in a team taught, multidisciplinary Language Arts/History classes at the secondary school level.
I will supply any handouts necessary.
The course covers graphic and sensitive topics such as death and murder. Those topics will be discussed with a high degree of sensitivity with respect to the individuals involved, as well as the individuals taking the course. I will facilitate productive and diplomatic discussion regarding these topics.
