I am certified in various subjects and have taught these topics in classes on Outschool and in Charter school for a long time. I am well versed in these topics and standards and love teaching them. Students are urged to join in the discussion. I have been teaching these topics for many years. I am certified and qualified to teach on marginalized groups and topics in relation to History due to my certification to do so.
Homework Offered
Everything is optional but I will provide a ton of resources on the topics we cover so students can better understand them.Assessments Offered
I offer weekly assessments most weeks in the folder for your student to take on the topics we covered. Students who want to test their knowledge of the content can take these and submit to be added into their grade. Most of the time, answer pages are also linked in there as well, but in the case there is none, submit for grading.Grades Offered
Grades will be provided via request but require students to submit weekly work to be graded and then averaged at the end for an overall grade. Please let me know the week you enter class if you wish to have a grade, and I will keep track of progress throughout the class.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
We will cover early eras, events, and cultures which might include discussion of servants, human sacrifice, aspects of world religions, invasions, violence, and anything else relating to the history of civilizations and eras. We will also discuss major wars, including our most recent, and sensitive events such as 911 and other events shaping the world. I am not teaching to share my opinion on the topics, I am teaching the events as recorded in history and in the textbooks listed below. We will have discussions on these topics throughout, but my goal is to initiate open conversations on some of these events so they learn about them, but also get to have projects on them as well. Students also need to have access to Google Drive to access the folder with resources I send weekly.
The sources used for the content taught will come from a variety of sources including: World History textbook (McGraw Hill) World History textbook (Glencoe) World Cultures textbook (Prentice Hall) US History textbook (McGraw Hill) Websites include: https://phi.history.ucla.edu/nchs/world-history-content-standards/ History.com Biography.com Britanica.com Students would need Google Drive to access all the work and resources I provide.
