For this class, students will be assigned "reflective analysis" assignments which will assess their understanding of the lesson. Each analysis will have 2-3 prompts and scholars will choose and complete 1 prompt prior to our next class. Students may write their response, record their response on flipgrid, or submit a picture of their creation on our Outschool Class page. The tasks should take about 10-30 minutes to complete each week.

제공되는 성적

The sources used to create this course included the 13th-15th amendments, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, biographies of Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X, Claudette Colvin, and several other leaders, the Black Lives Matter website, the textbook entitled "Lies My Teacher Told Me" by James Loewen, the movies "The Butler" and "Selma," and CNN and other news platforms for current events. Please be mindful that some of the class topics are sensitive, but will be delivered in a kid-friendly and developmentally-appropriate manner. I will screen-share different videos to help scholars make connections, but ask that they use their devices to access our other educational platforms, including nearpod, quizizz, and flipgrid.
