Since the first several chapter of our 11th and 12 World History book are review from Geography last semester, the class has been divided into groups to each teach a chapter. They must use a visual as they teach, have an activity to be completed in class after the lesson, and a homework worksheet. At first there was some nervousness but overall everyone has done a good job!
For the chapter on the beginnings of nations due to the language mix-up at the Tower of Babel, one group had an activity of coloring and putting together paper dolls from different countries!
When we studied the history of writing the students answered questions in cuniform!
This week we'll be finishing up chapters five and six with a test projected for
Thursday, January 28th, over chapters four through six. For those of you who have yet to teach, simply tell the story from what you have read. You do a great job pointing out important facts but tell it as a story and not disjointed facts. History can be so fascinating!!
