with our future careers as teachers. After sitting down and brainstorming with my cooperating
teacher my wondering came to be.
Many times when I am asked what my career plans are, I am often asked why I would ever want
to teach history. People describe history as:
-Boring
-Lame
-Dry
-Repetitive
-ETC.
With that being said my wondering was born!
How can I teach history in a way that is engaging for all students?
Step 1.
Finding literature that has relevance to my wondering.
For my literature I focused on teaching strategies that are most effective and engaging for
students to learn history.
My first piece of literature comes from the NC Civic Education Consortium titled: “Tips and
Tricks for Engaging Students in Social Studies Instruction”
My Second piece of literature comes from Queen’s University and is titled: “Engaging Students
in Learning History”
