Class Experience

US Grade 8 - 11

This class will provide students the opportunity to increase their knowledge of world history.  I can lead the discussion, or students can do research beforehand and share what they found with each other.  We will focus on briefly exploring a range of topics, rather than going into depth.  Slides, images and/or video clips, and/or Nearpod may be included.  Student participation and discussion is encouraged.  

The "week" will be determined by the Monday through Sunday dates.  When determining...

-Students will strengthen their understanding about historic events that happened around the world.
-Students will discuss thoughts and ideas about historic events.
