Find more FREE Educational Software at the Click Here When your student watches the news do they know (and understand) where it is happening? Proximity is important—understanding geography helps to explain why Zimbabwe is not much like Moscow, but shares characteristics with Egypt. It is important to understand things and places which are close, and those which are far apart. The horror and sorrow of September 11, 2001 will be with us for a long time. Almost all news now is international news. Our children and students need to know what is happening in their country and their world. The first part of knowing our world, and understanding what will happen now, is to know where places are. It is easy to fail to recognize the humanity of other peoples when we do not even know where they live. American men and women are now fighting far from home; we owe it to them to at least know where they are. Maps are vital to our understanding geography and the world we live in. They can be beautiful and fascinating, but if they are completely unfamiliar it can be difficult to learn from them.

For this lesson, you will need: Access to the Internet Paints and brushes, crayons, or markers in various colors Long roll of brown paper or newsprint Tape or other means of attaching paper to wall Ask students to tell you what these illustrations can tell us about life in ancient times. Guide them to notice that the wall paintings tell us at least the following: Which animals lived at that time Which animals the people hunted What games the people played Explain to students that they now will have the opportunity to create a wall mural that illustrates a day in their lives, but in this case the mural will be only temporary; the students will paint and draw on paper taped to a wall. Still, the students might like to pretend that future archaeologists will uncover their creation. Ask students to brainstorm about how they will illustrate their days. If they seem stuck, suggest that they might want to show the following common, daily events:

EMBARGOED UNTIL September 9, 2003 DEMOCRACY: TEACH IT Statement endorsed by over 100 prominent Americans, cites shortcomings in education for democracy; calls for strengthened content, in history and civics WASHINGTON, DC, September 9, 2003 What does it mean to be an American? As a new school year begins, and on the eve of the second anniversary of 9/11 what are America’s students learning about our democratic values and institutions, our struggles to overcome inequality, our remarkable capacity for self-correction Can they explain the basic distinctions between a country premised on individual liberty, representative government and free expression and systems that silence and oppress their people and despise the democratic ideal? Sandra Feldman, president of the American Federation of Teachers, urged broad support and dissemination for the statement, Education for Democracy, released today by the Albert Shanker Institute, a nonpartisan public policy organization established by the AFT. “We are arguing for an education that tells our students the truth about the democratic struggle – warts and all. We want knowledgeable students who will end up committed to a system that acknowledges weaknesses and tries to fix them, while valuing democracy and wanting to extend it,” she said.

Although each unit is recommended for certain grade levels, they can be adapted for other grade levels. The Teacher Background section should provide you with a good overview of the entire unit and with the historical information and context necessary to link the specific Dramatic Moment to the larger historical narrative. You may consult it for your own use, and you may choose to share it with students if they are of a sufficient grade level to understand the materials.

Textbooks about history written for children's use in homeschool or classroom. Our books teach children about the Renaissance, American history and other subjects with the use of lively narrative. PEMBLEWICK PRESS Books About History for the Classroom and the Home School Pemblewick Press is committed to providing middle school students with challenging yet kid-friendly books about history. They have proven themselves to be ideal for the classroom as well as the home school (Grades 6-9) There is much more to the study of history than timelines, charts, maps, and lists of battles. These resources are important, but isn't history, in fact, a collection of stories about humanity? Our books focus upon this story element. After carefully setting the stage, they present a colorful cast of characters, who draw the student into their world and open his/her eyes to the challenges and complexities of a particular moment in time. Who was the first emperor of China? Why are dragons loved in the East and feared in the West? Where did the first Americans come from? How did the Incas keep track of business transactions? Who was Sitting Bull? What was Galileo's dilemma? When did Alexander realize that Aristotle was wrong? What is a Renaissance Man? The answers to questions like these can be found in the books in our series, which bring to life the early cultures of China, Greece, Mesopotamia, Egypt, and the Americas as well as the Renaissance in Europe. Our books are written by Suzanne Strauss Art, a veteran teacher and author of over a dozen books for middle school. Her works are extremely well researched and are filled with historical detail, yet written in such a lively style that they are hard to put down.

98. Board Of Education Abolishes World History MCAS: 7/25/01 Press writer BOSTON The state Board of Education voted unanimously yesterday to eliminate the world history MCAS exam because teachers complained it covered http://www.s-t.com/daily/07-01/07-25-01/a03sr019.htm

Acushnet Dartmouth Fairhaven Fall River ... On-line yellow pages Board of education abolishes world history MCAS By Leslie Miller, Associated Press writer BOSTON The state Board of Education voted unanimously yesterday to eliminate the world history MCAS exam because teachers complained it covered too much subject matter for students to learn. Schools instead will be required to give an end-of-course-style test in U.S. history for grades 10 or 11, said Jonathan Palumbo, board spokesman. A new U.S. history MCAS exam probably won't be a requirement for graduation until 2006, he said. The state currently requires 10th graders to pass English and math MCAS exams to graduate. Getting rid of the world history MCAS test will give local school districts more flexibility to decide what aspects of world history they want to emphasize, as long as they're following the curriculum framework. "Local districts will have the authority to create whatever world history assessment they want," Palumbo said. Critics of the 10th grade world history test said it was simply too broad a subject for many students to handle. They believe it's more important to first grasp the basics of American history. The 2001 test included questions about architectural achievements of the Byzantine era, 14th-century religion in Mali's ruling class, the 13th-century Mongol empire and Japan's Act of Seclusion in 1636.

99. The National Council For History Education--Mission Statement policymakers about the importance of providing enough time in the curriculum for both world and US history and adequate support for good teaching and materials http://63.70.163.70/nche/mission.html

The National Council for History Education is a non-profit corporation whose Board of Trustees is dedicated to promoting the importance of history in schools and in society. The Council is supported by the contributions of individuals and organizations. NCHE links history in the schools with many activities sponsored by state and local organizations. We provide a communications network for all advocates of history education, whether in schools, colleges, museums, historical councils, or comunity groups. For more information read our mission statement below. All who teach history, anywhere along the line from Grade One to graduate seminars, have a friend: the National Council for History Education, founded in 1990 as the successor organization to the Bradley Commission on History in Schools. Until then, we had no equivalent to the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, the National Council for Geographic Education, or the other discipline-based advocacy groups that bring school and university people together to tackle all the issues that concern themfrom curricular design, K to Ph.D., through state, local, and university standards and requirements, teacher education, certification, and professional development, to the implications of the assessment movement, of new technologies, and of school re-structuring. Each of these issues was directly addressed in 1988 by the 32-page Bradley Commission report
