Teaching Slavery and Place Based Learning

March 12 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Lessons rooted in the places where students live help them make important connections to their own communities.

Event Description

In this webinar, learn best practices for discovering and teaching local history about slavery in your city and state.

The Education Department at Historic Hudson Valley will host a series of webinars in March in which teachers from across the country will share experiences and strategies for teaching the history of Northern Slavery. Educators will learn tangible skills to use with their students as well as receive flexible lesson plans for a variety of grade levels.
