Webinar: Promoting Inquiry with Primary Source Documents in the Elementary Classroom
Thursday, April 9, 2015
8:00pm ET / 5:00pm PT

The goal of this webinar is to help elementary teachers engage students in US history through selecting appropriate primary source documents, helping students tackle these complex texts through close reading and differentiation, and using them as a springboard to promote debate and discussion. Teachers will identify how using primary sources can engage students, promote inquiry, and help students think critically. Through identifying how to find appropriate primary sources, using close reading, interdisciplinary planning and technology, teachers will come away with useful strategies to engage students in American history, promote rich vocabulary development and fully integrate the C3 and Common Core standards into their classrooms. This inquiry-driven webinar will help teachers excite their students about the past and help them develop multi-faceted multicultural understandings.

Presenter: Jennifer Murrihy, 2014 Connecticut Dream Team of Educators Member and 5th grade teacher, Plainville Community Schoolsl.

Fee: $20 members/$40 non-members
