This is the fourth quarter of a year long Project Based Middle School Ancient History course. Learners will delve into the history of Ancient China, Ancient Rome, and Early Byzantium through visual lectures, hands on project based learning, and interactive Nearpod lessons.

I combine both comprehensive lessons using slides, images, lecture, discussion, and video, as well as hands on projects to deepen learning and bring the topic of focus to life. The first class of each week involves a lecture using slides and visuals. The second day is a project based learning day. Each project day will begin with a lively discussion based on the homework due, a possible interactive Nearpod lesson, and then students will get a chance to share any homework challenges completed before moving on to the project of the day.

There are many projects that will ask learners to create a model of a historic structure. I will allow students to choose their medium, and options can include wood or plastic blocks, cardboard, craft board, or recycled materials, as well as Minecraft (if parents allow). If learners would like to use plastic building blocks but don't have a large collection, they can download online building software, which is free and allows students to build with endless pieces. I will send a link to that upon enrollment.

Projects are mostly carried out in Maker style, meaning I give the students the freedom to decide how they want to create their project rather than offering step by step instructions. I find students feel more confident and less stressed this way and don't feel defeated when their projects don't turn out exactly how they are "supposed" to. Plus, I enjoy offering students time to use their inventiveness and problem solving skills. Only a few projects will be more similar to art projects, meaning I will offer step by step instructions, but even then, students will have the freedom to use the instructions or figure out their own style. The intention is always immersion in the learning, rather than a perfect result.

Learners will always differ in the amount of time they spend working on their projects. Therefore some might complete their projects before the end of class. Those who do will have time to share their projects with the class either by holding the project up to the camera, or screen sharing an online build. Students who don't complete their projects before the end of class will be encouraged to upload a photo or screen shot of their finished project in the classroom. As many learners will be in this course for the entire year, I hope that we can create a fun and supportive energy.

Perfil
Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
I have been teaching both World History and American History to Middle Schoolers and Elementary aged kids for about 6 years now. History is my passion and I have traveled the world, visiting many ancient and neolithic sites, studying and working with local historians, and writing. I have worked with archivists and read hundreds of first hand accounts of war, famine, and every day experiences of the old ways of life from baking bread to making soap. It has also been my ongoing education to voraciously read history books, both of ancient history, and most importantly, newly written historical commentaries that look at and analyze our previously written histories with an intention to decolonize the way we view history. I have lived off and on oversees for the past 25 years in a country that has faced tremendous challenges, therefore I have a unique insight into the importance of telling history from different angles and an understanding of the importance of more than one story being expressed.
