Description

Class Experience

Come join us as we learn about scandals, scoundrels, spies, and scammers- some of the infamous people in history.

Each week I will present interesting facts and information in an interactive presentation. Students will be encouraged to participate in conversations about what makes these people unique.  We will discuss the time period and major events in history surrounding the person we are studying.  Students will be challenged to think about how these people changed the course of...

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:Pear Deck

55 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.

This class is all about infamous people.  Some of them did bad things and made very poor choices.  Parents are encouraged to take a look at who we are studying for the week and be sure they are comfortable with it.  While our conversation will be age appropriate we will investigate how these people impacted history.
We will use PearDeck, an approved Outschool resource.  Students will be provided a link to the interactive slideshow where they can and respond to slides and interact with the slideshow.

Teacher created interactive slide shows.
