Study - Keith Etheridge
 Core
Democratic Values: All
Keith Etheridge planned this activity with his colleague at Murphy
Elementary, Margaret Holtschlag, who, as Michigan Teacher of the
Year, was on leave from her teaching position. She was created a
program she calls "Big History" at the Michigan Historical Center
in Lansing. Keith and Margaret planned a mini-version of this program
for his students. After setting up the activity at school in a discussion
that required his students to activate their prior knowledge of
"core democratic values," his students spent a day the Historical
Center investigating primary sources and exhibits and finding links
in them to the "core democratic values." Back in school the next
day, students engaged in a follow-up assessment activity.
