Featured Resource: Ken Burns UNUM
|
Filmmaker Ken Burns created this playlist of scenes from his films to explore this year’s NHD theme of Triumph & Tragedy. Watch the clips on Ken’s educational site, Ken Burns UNUM, and explore links to first-person documents, photographs, diary entries, maps, and letters to help as you complete your projects. On UNUM, Ken explores themes that run across his films and throughout our history - such as leadership, innovation, division, and democracy. Students and educators can also hear perspectives from contemporary leaders and swim through a timeline to make new connections. |
NHD is proud to share Herstory: Women in American History, a resource sponsored by HISTORY® with a foreword by Melinda French Gates. This resource contains 20 primary-source based activities created by teachers for teachers.
