Lesson Plan

Writing Fix: Writing Across the Curriculum Lesson: This I Believe: History

Curated by ACT

This writing assignments asks young scholars to assume the voice of a person from history they have researched. Focusing on a topic or belief the person showed passion about as history unfolded, the students write an essay modeled after NPR's "this i believe" podcasts. Ideally, young scholars publish their essays by recording them onto the classroom iPod, so they can be played back for the class.
