The Catherine B. Reynolds Civil War Washington Teacher Fellows
We are now accepting applications for the Civil War Washington Teacher Fellows program to be held in Washington, DC from July 8 – July 13, 2012. Join up to 25 teachers to learn about Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass and Washington during the Civil War as you spend a day at each of these fascinating sites!
As part of our six-day, six-night program, you will:
Come away from your week in Washington familiar with: an array of virtual tours, the oratory skills to get your students on their feet performing speeches by Lincoln and Douglass; comfortable taking students on content-driven experiential learning adventures; and excited about using classroom drama to help historic characters come alive!
