NH Historical Society Teacher Workshops - The American Revolution for Educators
The New Hampshire Historical Society presents a professional development opportunity focusing on New Hampshire and the American Revolution, a two-day workshop for elementary and middle school educators in preparation for the Revolution 250 anniversary coming up in 2026. Refresh your knowledge of the American Revolution and learn about New Hampshire's role in it, all while exploring ready-made lesson plans, projects, and activities you can introduce to your students in the coming school year. The workshop explores lessons from "Moose on the Loose: Social Studies for Granite State Kids," especially Unit 5: New Hampshire and the American Revolution. We will also discuss plans for the state and national celebrations for the Revolution 250 anniversary and the New Hampshire Historical Society’s American Revolution-themed “603 History Hunt,” a family-friendly statewide scavenger hunt. Familiarity with 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. Breakfast and lunch are included. Attendees will receive a $100 Target gift card and CEU credits for the two-day workshop.
Monday and Tuesday, August 12–13, 2024, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. (in-person only)
This program was funded in part by a New Hampshire Humanities Community Project Grant.
