Since the dawn of time, tribal and community elders, religious leaders, philosophers, parents, and teachers have been instructing the next generation through stories. Stories help us to identify more with the content and see its value. Stories make learning fun. Anyone who has ever worked with children and youth knows this to be true. The Teacher Resources for Thrown to the Wind explores a time period often ignored and challenging to teach. Developed by author and long-time social studies teacher, Amanda M. Cetas, in partnership with writer, story consultant, and former English teacher, Adriana R. King, this invaluable resource provides ready-made lessons tied to National Standards to develop critical thinking skills essential for preparing students for college and future careers. Students will learn to evaluate primary and secondary source texts, examine an event or circumstance from various perspectives, determine point-of-view, and develop habits of the mind and critical thinking skills through engaging activities, projects, and simulations. Additional ideas for teachers and grading rubrics are also included.
