US Grade 5 - 8
Do you have a passion for history? Do you love learning unusual and odd historical facts? Each week we will learn about 7-15 different people or events from history that happened this week. This will cover both world and American history, both modern and ancient. We will look at events that made history, such as the moon landing or the Challenger Space Shuttle explosion, to people and pop culture. (What was the war of 1812? Who invented the frisbee? When did the first Barbie Doll go on sale?...
Students will learn about different events from history. Topics will vary from week to week and will cover a variety of topics. Students are encouraged to discuss amongst themselves the events (I encourage discussion through the chat box), and will be prompted through questions throughout the class.
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, learner experience, and knowledge. 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:
I let my students direct some of the discussions that we cover in this class. Some of the topics each week that may be covered might deal with discrimination, racism, and events that may involve violence and death. There may also be some artwork from ancient times that show some partial nudity. All topics will be handled in an age appropriate and sensitive manner. Students are encouraged to ask questions and offer their thoughts and opinions. These will be handled in an age appropriate and sensitive manner. 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.
