DETAILS
Are you teaching a women’s history course or simply looking to add more women’s history to your existing classes? Not sure where to find a culturally responsive curriculum? While Choices does not currently have a full unit solely on women’s history, we do have several inclusive lessons that highlight women’s roles in selected historical turning points.
During this free webinar, we’ll examine four lessons from four different Choices curriculum units and discuss how you might implement them in your classroom. We’ll also highlight the skills embedded in each lesson.
