How can we support learners in thinking deeply about history—and why it matters today and tomorrow?
At this time of year, many communities pause to remember and reflect on moments of great significance that shape who we are and how we understand the world. It is also a reminder of the importance of nurturing historical understanding throughout the year, not only on days of commemoration.
When we invite learners to examine evidence, consider multiple perspectives, and reflect on the ethical dimensions of the past, they gain a deeper and more thoughtful understanding of how history influences our present and future.
Our Thinking About History collection offers videos, lessons, strategies, and tools to help students learn how to think like historians as they explore what it means to remember.
