I moderated tonight’s chat on “Hands-on activities in the history classroom”. Two questions to guide discussion:
- What are your favourite hands on activities for the history classroom?
- What realia / materials / movies / tools work best in your history classroom?
Tweets in tonight’s #Histedchat. I’ll have to find a way to make the links clickable:
