This session will present the Grade 3 Missouri History Unit, "We the Missourians: Diverse Changemakers," developed in collaboration with local teachers and aligned with the state standards and the Educating for American Democracy (EAD) Roadmap. The unit engages students in historical inquiry, exploring Missouri’s complex history through diverse changemakers using primary and customized secondary sources. "Changemakers" refers to civic participants who pursue a healthy constitutional democracy from a broad ideological spectrum. This unit highlights diverse experiences of social, racial, and economic groups in Missouri, helping young students relate this local history to their own lives and become capable changemakers.
Use stick figure graphic novel notes to teach the story of Martin Luther and how it led to the Protestant Reformation. Engage the kids with this unique story with a fun note-taking style.
