This book "fills a void for teachers who want to teach basic Civil War history. Activity oriented, it places the student in the mindset of children their age...and makes history 'more real' to them. I recommend this book to elementary and middle school teachers who strive to get their students more actively involved in thinking historically." ~John Michael Priest; author, educator, historian
As reviewed by Patricia Cummings of The Quilter's Muse: www.quiltersmuse.com ...Throughout the text are sprinkled many questions and suggestions for student activities. ...By turning learning into an active experience, she proves that history does not have to be boring. Just glancing at the book, it is apparent that she wants students to “think historically.” The 107 page book, published by White Mane Publishing, 717-532-2237, is a gem. There are photos throughout the pages and an appealing cartoon-like cover. Hey, History Isn’t Boring Anymore is a great resource for teachers and for students who are involved in the discovery of history. | |||||||
