The History Herald: World History for the Middle School Mind! Part One! Ancient Civilizations to the Age of Exploration
Extra! Extra- Learn All About It! 

This is a self-paced class with Teacher Courtney that adventures through the history of world and brings the past to life! In this 20-week course, we will travel back through the history of the world from pre-history through the Age of Exploration. This is a beginner’s class, so previous knowledge is not necessary. We work  through readings, conversations, slides & presentations, activities,  games, and video clips  to use our critical thinking skills to unravel and discover how the civilizations were born, adapted, and changed the world throughout hundreds of years. 

Please note that there are some sensitive topics that will be addressed throughout the course including but not limited to: genocide, slavery, and sectional violence as this class will discuss the historical events that occurred.

We will also learn how to "understand" and research history like a historian. Students will learn historical research skills that will aid them in breaking down and analyzing history while helping them build critical thinking skills. Some skills that will be addressed are Chronological Thinking, Source Analysis, Inference, Relevance, and Summarizing. 

We will use "Everything You Need to Ace World History in One Big Fat Notebook" by Workman Publishing and Philip Bigler as our class reference for this class. I will also add worksheets, games, videos, and slides to bring the content to life!

Students will be responsible for reading the assigned chapters each week- roughly 15 pages. But, this book is great at keeping things in easy to read form while creating a bright and fun background! A lot of the book is visual aids (which I believe is essential for students to move this knowledge into long term memory).  Each student will need to have their own copy which can be purchased from Amazon for under $10.00 at the moment. This will be a great addition to their library that they will be able to reference for years to come! 


***********Part Two of both world and US history will be offered after part one throughout the year!************

Please note that there are some sensitive topics that will be addressed throughout the course including but not limited to: genocide, slavery, and sectional violence. I have been challenging and elevating students for over 10 years to delve deeply into the issues of our past and wrestle with the realities of our present and future. Each conversation will be open and honest but guided with the necessary care for students of this age. I believe it is our job as educators to not teach children what to think- but how to think and allow them to unearth the truths that are often hidden within the words of pages.

For the past decade, I have been encouraging students through education and personal development to explore the challenges of the past. Through my own personal education and professional development, I create a safe environment for students to learn about challenging topics of the past. My undergraduate is in history, focusing on United States and European integration, past cultures, and empire. My first master's degree is in education with a focus on English/Language Arts and History. My second master's degree is in history with a focus on world empires and United States/Europe during the premodern era and modern era. I am currently pursuing my PhD in history focusing on immigration and relations with indigenous peoples and cultures. 
I have taught Ancient Civilizations in World History classes as well as classes on the history of Africa, Asia, and Australia, Ancient and Medieval Europe, and Early American history. I have taken and taught classes on world religions and practices starting with the ancient traditions of prehistoric cultures through modern day transitions of religions such as druidism. I have also taught about episodes of religious hysteria such as the Inquisition and the Salem Witch Trials. I also teach classes on the myths and legends that have defined these cultures. This extensive background will be utilized to create a well-rounded and thorough explanation of the topics presented in class.
