History is something I have always been passionate about, even when I was a young student in elementary school. Now, as a teacher, I encourage my students to never accept everything as the truth without doing their own research on primary source analysis, which I build into my lessons.
I am available to tutor for high school and middle school students most afternoons/evenings. Subjects I specifically tutor for are US History 1 & 2, World History (pre 1500), Civics/Geography, World Literature (pre-1599), and World Literature (post-1600). For World Literature, my State Standards allow me to focus on teaching through Shakespeare and other works of literature. Works by Shakespeare include 'Romeo and Juliet,' 'Julius Caesar,' 'Macbeth,' and 'Twelfth Night.' Other works include 'Night' by Elie Wiesel, 'Animal Farm' by George Orwell, 'The Odyssey' by Geraldine McCaughrean, 'Everything, Everything,' by Nicola Yoon, and more.
Below is an example of a US History 1 lesson plan I used with my 10th-grade students. History lessons are structured similarly.
Discussion: Can average citizens change society? What do you think is the best way to get a society to accept reform?
Directed Lesson: Religion to Reform Guided Notes
Primary Source Analysis: Thoreau & Transcendentalism
Debrief: What organization founded by Richard Allen was the political, cultural, and social center for African Americans? Can we see the impact of that organization today? How?
ELA Lesson Plan Example for 10th Grade ELA
Warmup: Famous Inspiration (Read & respond to a quote)
Directed Lesson: Read 'Night' Ch 2
Analysis: 'Night' Ch 2: Mrs. Schacter Character Comparison
Debrief: Journal Entry (looks different depending on if completing a series of lessons or a single lesson)
