Open All Close All

http://schema.org/description

  • "Teaching U.S. History Beyond the Textbook presents six teaching strategies, each with many sample lessons suitable for grades 5-12, that tap into students' natural curiosity and investigative instincts. Your students will become detectives of the past as they ghost-hunt in their neighborhoods, researching mysterious buildings, monuments, and other "haunted" spaces; solve historical crime scenes, or "cold cases;" analyze primary and secondary sources using fingerprinting techniques; reconstruct "accidents" that occurred at important intersections in history; prepare arguments as defenders or prosecutors in famous court cases; and undertake paranormal investigations to communicate with figures from the past. --From publisher's description."
