    Lots and lots of links and materials. Many of the lessons involve primary sources for US History topics. Information on assessment, mobile technology, and assessment and collaboration.

    I've got a new boss these days and she's getting us to use graphic organisers and reading strategies and such things. I was sceptical at first, but now I'm a convert. Do many people use graphic organisers in class?

    They're pretty popular here in the States. What do you want to know/need to know?

    Thinkfinity has ReadWriteThink as one of its content providers. Definitely worth checking out: http://www.thinkfinity.org/

    How do you use them mate? I found some excellent charts here http://moodle.egrps.org/course/enrol.php?id=136. Password is 'monty'.

    I use them for thinking maps, to show how concepts and ideas are related, as flow charts when necessary, as a way to show comparisons and contrasts and as a way to show umbrella terms and then related terms.

    I'm definitely a convert. I now spend the first half of each lesson going through the content and the second half skills-building using graphic organisers, summarising, etc.

    The essay contest for 2009-10 is not up yet, but the topic is the effectiveness of nonviolent civic action. My students participated last year when the topic was crimes against humanity and it lead to really great discussions.

    Students learn to read and interpret climate graphs of the rainforest using their senses- one group uses audio, another poetry, another photos, lastly one uses travel blogs.

BBC News - Argentina's Dirty War lessons for the world - 3 views

  • "We have had quite a bit of stability even in the worst-case scenarios, hyperinflation, default and a complete melt-down of the banking system in 2001. "Greece is a playground compared to what happened in Argentina."
  • "There are many countries where impunity reigns and I would say the most disappointing - obviously on a different scale - is the United States where the torture that has happened during the war on terror is not being investigated by political decisions not to investigate it." "In the US there are civil society groups that pursue justice very valiantly but in terms of public opinion there is still this idea that these are people we don't care about, names we can't pronounce." He added: "There is generally an attitude that if torture keeps us safe then we don't really care about it.
  • "Argentina has moved on, is moving on and in fact is moving on thanks to the trials not in spite of them. It is moving on to more respect for freedom of expression, freedom of association."

    A little self-indulgent, however I'm interested in seeing what other people do with their classes. This is the montage of our recent medieval tournament. We also do an archaeological dig and other historical re-enactments. If anyone else has footage, images or descriptions of activities or re-enactments they do with their classes I'd be really interested to see them. And steal their ideas.
