Here you will find a collection and sample of lessons that I created by myself or collaborated with my supervising practitioner.  The format of these lessons tend to be singular worksheets that work for the entire 80 minute block at Cambridge Rindge and Latin School.

1. Second-Wave Civilizations HAM
This worksheet was created for a field trip at the Harvard Art Museum.  One of our goals during our AP World History course was getting students to engage in art and artifacts as primary sources.  We wanted students to go to museums and discern the narratives and the histories that come with art and artifacts.  This particular worksheet was gearing students to explore Second-Wave Civilizations such as Greek, Roman and Han Dynasty civilizations.  HAM Student Work

2. Fairbank Lesson Plan
This worksheet and lesson was created as part of our Period 3 unit where we began to explore Third-Wave civilizations, particularly China and their interactions with their tributary states.  The purpose of this lesson was for students to explore a different example of worldview/world order.  The main idea behind this lesson was Sinocentrism, a term from John King Fairbank, an American historian whose main focus was on China.  Students were given a worksheet that required them to move around the room to different stations and answer questions from the stations.  The stations were excerpts from Fairbank’s book: The Chinese World Order as well as other supplementary images and maps.  The final activity was a mini-creative project, where students had to produce a “tribute” gift to the teachers.
