The lesson was presented in a way that would allow the students to make history more personal to them. Choosing four fab words is a great idea and the rewriting of the summary will help the students to remember the lesson.

I appreciate that the teacher allowed students to see that the history of America does not mean the same thing to all students. Her allowing the students to actively read, discuss and rewrite their own meaning from the excerpt using key words they selected, is briliant. This allowed the students to pull the information from the essay that they are able to relate to and identify with and write their own summary. This is so vital to students. I enjoyed this lesson.

A wonderful lesson. My take away was the importance of personalizing history for the student. The active reading portion definitely helps bring the students into the lesson. The sharing of their 'fab fours' introduced that personalization, and the summary completed it. I am totally going to try this when the time comes.

Just looking at the typed excerpt--it says, "And now, four centuries the discovery of America..." Something seems to be left out.
