Enhance your skill in teaching the core concepts and tools from history, geography, economics and civics that are emphasized in Colorado's seventh grade Social Studies Standards. The Program for Teaching East Asia at the University of Colorado, Colorado Geographic Alliance, and the Colorado Council for Economic Education collaborate to bring this day-long workshop to middle school teachers. A subject-area expert will help you understand how each discipline might approach the teaching of World History, using the Silk Road as a common topic. Presentations will blend content and pedagogy and you will leave with sample lessons, resources and ideas for activities, including trade, primary sources, GeoHistoGrams and a look at Silk Road communities in modern times. High school teachers of World History are welcome!
Date & Time: Saturday, September 9th, 8:30 am to 4:30 pm
