Stand Against Hatred
Rating
0.0 stars

Asian Americans have been in the U.S. for over 170 years yet common stereotypes and myths persist. Even today, Asian Americans are often regarded as “perpetual foreigners” or the “model minority.” Unfortunately, the Asian American experience is overlooked, forgotten, or misrepresented in history texts and in the K-12 curriculum. The COVID-19 pandemic has evoked a disturbing surge in racist and violent acts targeting Asian American and Pacific Islanders (AAPIs) that has its roots in ignorance, xenophobia, and mistrust. These actions have galvanized the AAPI community into action and promoted solidarity between AAPI and other groups.

Trash Can Archaeology, The Original Coloradans: Lesson 1, Museums of the West: Social Studies Lessons
Rating
0.0 stars

The Original Coloradans Social Studies Lesson 1 designed to be used with The Original Coloradans Artifact Kit. Lessons 1, 2 and 4 can be completed without the artifacts from the kit. These kits are available through Musuems of Western Colorado to D51 Teachers. This lesson can be adapted to use without the kit. This pre-activity is designed to help students activate prior knowledge before they explore the kit of genuine artifacts. This activity should open the dialogue in class about what archaeologists do, and how they ask questions to uncover a story. Ultimately students are building an understanding of how studying our past helps us to better prepare for our future, while cultivating respect for natural and cultural resources. Students examine how trash can be useful to learn about a culture by examining a teacher created "midden."
