Tim asked us to do a final blog post. Thanks to everyone, the leaders and participants, for helping to make this past week so worthwhile. I will never look at or read about the Mormon Trail in the same way.
As far as a strategy that I plan to use, it was hard to decide from all of the good ones we received. I definitely plan to use the analysis of primary documents that we did with the Pony Express document and the Cove Fort photograph. The forms would also work well with the well-known photograph of the signing of the Declaration of Independence for the 5th grade U.S. history core, and the Mayflower Compact.
I also really liked the compacted version of Alpha Boxes. That could be used with many of the papers that everyone prepared for this seminar, as well as with just about any social studies or science unit.
