Today in Georgia History is an educational program that includes daily television and radio segments focusing on significant people and events associated with a particular day in Georgia history. A joint collaboration of the Georgia Historical Society and Georgia Public Broadcasting, this interactive website allows you to access streaming audio and video of the episodes, as well as transcripts, tips for teachers, curriculum, writing prompts, review questions and discussion topics, classroom exercises, follow-up research topics and selected primary-source material. Together, these resources will reach students of all grade levels, cover all subject areas based on content, and will align with Georgia's social studies curriculum and performance standards.On the right side of the screen under the Audio Player button is a link for a Daily Activity. The activity is geared to the 8th grade curriculum. As a parent, I can see this Daily Activity being used by the family during the holiday break. Homeschoolers might find it a very handy way to cover Georgia History!
I'm going to get a dictionary and go through the vocabulary words for today. Another way to keep my brain active.
