NH Historical Society Teacher Workshops - Civics and “Moose on the Loose”
In this workshop, we will focus on the foundational civics instruction offered in New Hampshire’s statewide social studies curriculum, "Moose on the Loose: Social Studies for Granite State Kids." Developed by the New Hampshire Historical Society for students and educators in grades 3–8, this resource provides everything you’ll need to introduce your students to the ideas that underlay our system of government and the structures and practices Americans have established for self-governance. The “Moose” includes lesson plans, explainer videos, inquiry resources, curated primary source sets, and fun, easy ways to work with primary and secondary sources. Familiarity with navigating the “Moose on the Loose” curriculum from a prior training will be vital in this workshop. Participants interested in learning more about this high-quality state social studies curriculum created by the New Hampshire Historical Society are encouraged to attend the virtual workshop, Introduction to “Moose on the Loose,” on August 1. Attendees will receive a $50 Target gift card and CEU credits. In-person attendees will receive breakfast and lunch.
