Introducing Our US History Curriculum Collection
Draw from this flexible curriculum collection as you plan any middle or high school US history course. Featuring units, C3-style inquiries, and case studies, the collection will help you explore themes of democracy and freedom with your students throughout the year.
Recurring Themes in the Play
Students prepare to write an essay on theme by identifying and analysing the themes explored in the play.
Social Systems and Individual Agency
Students identify the parts, people, and interactions of various social systems, thinking about what bearing they have on character choices and behaviour, before considering responses to injustice.
Theatre as a Call to Action
Students consider theatre as a call to action, discussing its power and limitations to spark real social change, before plotting their own play inspired by An Inspector Calls.
The Treatment of Edwardian Women
Students examine various resources, including excerpts from Emmeline Pankhurt’s ‘Freedom or Death’ speech, to gain an understanding of how women were treated and expected to behave in Edwardian society.
Taking Ownership of the Law
Students learn about Mum Bett and Quock Walker, who successfully sued for their freedom, and reflect on what their stories illuminate about democracy today.
The Rule of Law and Why It Matters
Students explore what it means to respect the rule of law and consider its importance in a democracy.
What Does It Mean to Belong?
Students identify the range of actions they can take when confronted with exclusion. The term upstander is introduced, as well as key terms such as bystander, perpetrator, and victim.
What Makes Memphis a Community?
Students connect what they have learned about communities to their knowledge of Memphis,TN, by analyzing images of historical and local importance to the city.
What Shapes Your Identity?
Through a poem-writing activity, students broaden and deepen their understanding of identity.
Who Am I?
By asking the question "Who am I?" students explore the role that identity plays in forming their values, ideas, and actions.
Who Are We?
Through a gallery walk activity, students learn that communities consist of a collection of people with unique identities.
