그 외 세부 사항

학부모 가이드
The Girls Survive series presents a unique twist on the popular I Survived books by featuring young heroines as the protagonists. Each book in the series explores a significant historical event that might be considered frightening for some readers, such as the Trail of Tears or the attack on the Twin Towers. However, it is important to note that all the books in this series ultimately conclude with a sense of optimism and a positive outcome. I will guide the class discussion in a way that is appropriate for the student's age level, ensuring that learners handle these topics with sensitivity and empathy. The books in the Girls Survive series are specifically written for children aged 8 to 13, taking into account their developmental readiness and emotional maturity.
수업 자료
Students will need to have a physical, digital, or audio copy of each book and have read the book prior to class. My library has most of these on Hoopla as an ebook.

석사 학위 영어 Simmons University에서
I genuinely believe George Santayana's quote, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." And so, I love learning history. But not just regular history. The part of history that we may find weird and interesting or unusual. I have been teaching history for over four years. I have taken many history courses at Duquesne University, UMASS, CCV in Vermont, and Simmons University. With extensive expertise in various historical topics, I offer a comprehensive understanding of pivotal moments and marginalized groups throughout history. My knowledge spans the courageous roles of Civil War drummer boys, including their daily lives, uniforms, and significant contributions on the battlefield. I have delved into the impactful stories of Civil War dogs and the often-overlooked contributions of women during this tumultuous period. Additionally, I possess a deep understanding of the Holocaust, focusing on both the harrowing experiences of its victims and the resilience of the children who lived through it. My studies extend to the rich and complex history of LGBTQIA+ communities, highlighting their struggles, triumphs, and the significant figures who have shaped their journey. Through these diverse historical lenses, I aim to provide a nuanced and inclusive perspective on the past, bringing to light the stories of those who have often been overlooked or forgotten.
