Middle school history teachers confront the same challenge every
day: how to convey the breadth and depth of a curriculum that spans
centuries, countries, and cultures. In "Making History Mine, "Sarah
Cooper shows teachers how to use thematic instruction to link
skills to content knowledge. By combining thought-provoking
activities and rich assessments, Sarah encourages teachers to
challenge students to make history personal and relevant to their
lives.
Built around eight themes--examining the role of the individual,
understanding point of view, assessing the impact of rhetoric,
finding patterns in the past, writing analytically, connecting
current events to historical precedents, igniting passion through
research, and exploring ethics and morals--"Making History Mine"
offers young adolescents a window to the wider world. This
comprehensive volume gives teachers and students a solid framework
for exploring and understanding history, including how to analyze
primary source documents, extrapolate themes, and detect bias in a
historian's argument. A one-page description at the beginning of
each chapter explains the embedded skills and shows how the lessons
correlate to state and national history standards. "Making History
Mine" includes dozens of short activities, in-depth projects,
guiding questions, and effective strategies to help teachers bring
history to life in the classroom. Students will learn how to
imagine themselves in the past, making decisions that changed the
world. Through role playing, debates, and service learning they
will gain the skills to make their own histories count.
