Description

The Gathering Storm in America brings history to life with an award-winning (64 minute) audio drama featuring the events that led to American Independence. It tells the remarkable story of an all-but-forgotten forefather whose actions initiated the tumultuous Pre-Revolutionary Period in America. Derived from primary sources, it presents both the British and American points of view on issues that led to the Declaration of Independence and the building of a new nation on democratic principles.

The Teacher's Guide includes a scope and sequencing of pre-Revolutionary events, and Answers to Questions contained in Easel Activities. The Student Workbook includes audio, video, and narrative forms of storytelling. Activities engage students through learning dispositions that involve listening, reading, writing, thinking, inventing, and performing reader's theater.

Digital Requirements: Ability to access the Internet with a computer or tablet and the ability to save documents for future use in the classroom or for home use. The Student Workbook includes links to the audio drama, together with all of the features that will allow students to work independently through this Standards-based course.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions. We would love to hear from you and to learn how your students are doing!
