It was A Touching Time in History for students with Ramona Cheek at Central High School West. The goal of this project was to help students gain a deeper understanding and knowledge of past world events by connecting it to the present. Reproduced primary documents were given to groups of students to research and prepare a product for display. Each group engaged in a discussion and wrote about what they discovered from the primary documents. This project allowed students to practice working in a meaningful and cooperative group-learning environment to prepare them for real world experiences.
