Seventh and eighth graders in 贝博体彩app’s 英语语言课程 took a deep dive into American history this year with faculty member Joel Rubin, exploring a range of topics that included a close look at the reform movements that marked nineteenth-century America.

 

From the abolition movement to women’s rights and education reform, students examined how the changes that resulted from these movements fundamentally changed the lives of many Americans. “Some students were fascinated by the women’s movement and learning about what women in the United States had to endure,” says Joel, “and the discussions were great because the students were also making connections to their own cultures.”

 

在期末项目中，每个学生选择并研究了一个主要的改革运动，并创作了一个杂志封面和展示，既了解又倡导他们的特定运动。 封面可以是手绘的，也可以是用网络工具制作的，必须包括有关问题及其解决方案的图片、著名改革家的名字，以及三篇有关该运动的文章的标题，这些文章可能会出现在杂志中。
