3) Michigan History Day
Good afternoon,
The Historical Society of Michigan is proud to sponsor Michigan History Day® or National History Day in Michigan and Michigan History for Kids magazine.
National History Day is an educational competition designed to encourage students in grades 4 – 12 to explore historical subjects through hands-on study. Students do not have to be in the traditional school setting to participate. Program materials and district competitions are open to all students; all that is required is an enthusiastic student and an adult sponsor.
Over the course of several months, students research an individually chosen topic. Each student becomes a historian, considering his or her topic from many angles and arguing a point of view. They present their research by creating an exhibit, documentary, website, performance, or paper. With the exception of the paper category, students can work on entries in teams of up to five students or as individuals. National History Day aligns with many Content Expectations for Social Studies and Language Arts and addresses the C3 Framework for Social Studies content. Learn more about this free program at http://hsmichigan.org/mhd/.
Aimed at children in third and fourth grades, Michigan History for Kids goes beyond the textbooks, exploring the history and heritage of all Michigan's peoples. The magazine thoroughly integrates Michigan's Grade Level Content Expectations and other emerging standards into its many stories, information, and activities. Using both print and digital platforms and a racial-equity lens, each issue brings to life a different part of our state's past and features unbiased stories about the diverse people, places, and events that have impacted Michigan over time. You can learn more about the magazine and view sample content at http://michigankids.org/.
We would love the opportunity to share more about these exciting programs with you. We can provide resources, answer questions by phone or e-mail, or set up a meeting.
Please contact Amy Bradfield at bradfield@hsmichigan.org or (517) 324-1828 to learn more about Michigan History Day and Michigan History for Kids.
