Towering pyramids. An intriguing alphabet. A mysterious game played on a vast court as large as a football field. These are just a few of the incredible achievements of the Ancient Maya, just one of three Pre-Columbian civilizations you will encounter in this class. In addition to exploring the geography of Mexico, Central and South America, you will learn about the history, culture, religion, and technological advances of the Maya, Aztec and Inca civilizations, as well as how the descendants of these civilizations live today. Each week students will: • view a recorded lesson that introduces the content • view a recorded lesson that demonstrates the reading comprehension skill • independently read and respond to a written text, video, or image • practice rare-word vocabulary • complete a challenge activity In addition to the prerecorded lessons, I will provide a study exercise for each selection that focuses on a discreet study skill, such as summarizing, taking Cornell Notes, creating a content web, or using question-answer relationships to answer questions about a nonfiction text. Sources for this class include articles, videos, and images from the National Geographic Resource Library and a variety of engaging materials. These resources feature a variety of views and perspectives on the history and civilization of the Maya, Aztec, and Inca. What follows is a sample of the type of resources that will be used. • Guillermo de Anda | The Maya Underworld https://www.nationalgeographic.org/media/guillermo-de-anda-maya-underworld/ • Modern Day Maya https://www.nationalgeographic.org/media/modern-day-maya/ • Remains of a Thriving Civilization https://www.nationalgeographic.org/media/remains-thriving-civilization/ • Archaeologist and Anthropologist: Dr. Lisa J.

Students will be expected to complete the weekly assignments and participate in the discussion board at their own pace. This course format works well if your learner prefers independent pacing or is uncomfortable with live video chat.
學習目標
Students will become familiar with the geography, key historical events, social structure, culture, and elites of three Pre-Columbian civilizations and gain background knowledge and rare-word vocabulary from a specific domain that will enhance their reading comprehension of nonfiction text.

其他詳情
父母的引導和規範
The content and resources for this class are appropriate for intermediate learners. Because Indigenous Peoples of Mexico, Central and South America, including the Maya, Aztec and Inca, have been and continue to be marginalized and exploited, special care is needed for educators to add context and expose bias in resources. If or when inaccuracies or biases are present in any resources used for this class, I will use them as teachable moments to explain what is inaccurate and how the resource shows bias.

I have taught this unit for several years as a full-time, certified Elementary and Secondary teacher at the District of Columbia Public Schools. As an undergraduate at the University of California, San Diego, I attended Third College (since renamed Thurgood Marshall College), dedicated to Third World Studies, Race, and Ethnicity. I conducted a study tour through Mexico, spending extensive time at the Museo Nacional de Antropología in Mexico City. As a full-time teacher in Washington, DC, I led numerous field trips to the Dumbarton Oaks Museum to view its collection of Pre-Columbian art. Additionally, I taught for 8 years at a public elementary school with a demographic that is predominantly made up of children from Mexico and Central America. I currently reside in the same neighborhood where my former students live. I received an Excellence Award by the Educational Testing Service for Outstanding performance on the PRAXIS II Test for Social Studies Content Knowledge. My unique expertise is in developing and teaching content-rich, humanities units that integrate geography, history, literature, science, art, and music. Additionally, I have developed a repertoire of strategies for teaching reading in the content area to intermediate-age students.評論
