DETAILS
How do we create an inclusive history in our units? Learn how Choices units cover key turning points in U.S. History from multiple perspectives. Join us as we share our Diversity, Inclusion, and Accessibility rubric and apply it to three of our curriculum units:
The American Revolution: Experiences of Rebellion
The Civil War and the Meaning of Liberty
Freedom Now: The Civil Rights Movement in Mississippi
This webinar is the first in a four-part series on The Choices Program’s U.S. History Series: Bringing All Voices into the Story. Attend one or all four sessions! What makes the Choices Program’s U.S. History series different from many curricular offerings in the marketplace? One way that Choices curriculum units stand out is our commitment to telling a responsible and inclusive history of the United States. Join us for this four-part exploration of practical examples of how our curriculum brings multiple voices into the telling of history, while still providing the coverage of key turning points that are required in most standards.
NOTE: This webinar will begin at 3 pm ET.
