World History 9: Daily Agenda

April 27/28: i am a story

4/27/2017

 
Today,  you will be reading children's story books to help get you thinking about  and understanding the value of storytelling in history and the value it has had in passing down information within cultures. We will explore what we can learn about a culture by reading, hearing and learning about their stories. 

Link to today's lesson and presentation:
  • I Am a Story (Google Slides Presentation)

HW: (formative assessment): improve your "meanwhile in..." story of your endangered culture

Picture
The document you need to complete this formative is in your WH Drop folder. 
  • You may want to go into Schoology where you posted the first draft of your “meanwhile in…” story during class earlier this week (and received feedback from a Critical Friend). You can copy/paste the draft you’ve written and then continue building on and revising.
  • Be sure your story includes the following elements:
    • ​ Historical context 
    • Change and Continuity Over Time
    • Culture Traits - Way of Life
    • Interactions with other cultures
  • Try to add further historical details that brings the story into the modern-day era. Include what you have researched and learned about what has happened to this culture during industrialization. While adding historical context, try to stay true to writing this in story format (you do not need to cite sources in this story but be sure the story is factually correct).
  • ​Be descriptive! Help create visualization so the reader can “see” and “feel” the story of what life was like for this culture and how this has changed over time. Help them understand what their current life is like. Make the reader want to feel like they want to know how the story will end--this is what will make it a compelling story worth telling and reading. ​

April 25/26: Industrial revolution(s) 1750 - 1900s & beyond

4/25/2017

Today we will take a brief look at the role the Industrial Revolution(s) --there was more than 1 -- played in leading to the globalized world we live in today. We will look at what caused these industrialized advances and also pay close attention to how life changed dramatically and rapidly as a result of industrialization. You will work in groups to examine the consequences (intended and unintended) and the impact it had on the landscape, socially, technologically economically, and environmentally.  Your group will report out your findings at the class at the end of class.

The Industrial Revolution (Google Slides Presentation)

HW/Prep: research & note what was happening to your assigned endangered culture during the process of industrialization.

April 21/24: Age of European Colonization/Age of Western Imperialism

4/21/2017

 
Today you will be working individually and sharing out in partnerships and groups to learn more about the Age of European Colonization and Age of Western (European) Imperialism around the world. After we look globally as a class at these time periods, you will focus on your endangered culture and research and document in your summative research portfolio about what was happening to your endangered culture during this time period in history (1400s - 1900s CE) and whether or not they were dramatically impacted by outside influences and contact with others during any of this time. 

Helpful Link for today's class:
​Imperialism - Colonialism (Google Slides presentation)

HW/Prep: research + document (in research portfolio) what was happening to your endangered culture during 1400 - 1900 ce

Be sure you have begun to look chronologically at the major time periods we have examined in this unit and begun developing an outline/timeline of what was going on during these time periods (if any information is known about them during these time periods) and document whether or not they were impacted by outside groups due to trade, colonization, conquests, cultural diffusion, etc.

Next class you will have a formative writing task in which you will need to write about what was happening to your endangered culture and what life was like for them during the 1400s - 1900s. Come prepared to write.

April 19/20: individual research on endangered culture

4/19/2017

 
After today's GOOD History Moment presentation, you will have most of the class time to work on your individual research. You will also be doing a check-in with Mrs. S on the research process.
