Herstory in History
Herstory in History
Description:
This unit is about women’s place in American history and philanthropy. As a part of this unit, students will be working with American history and philanthropy timelines to determine representation of women in recorded history and philanthropy. They will add women to the timelines to more fully represent the contributions women make to the common good. They will also identify core democratic values of women who took a stand in history and acted as philanthropists. Students will act as philanthropists through an advocacy project related to bullying in their own school. As a part of this project, students will design and give surveys related to bullying and write letters to interested parties, taking a position on whether or not bullying violates a student’s core democratic values and whether or not students should be actively involved in stopping bullying in their school.
