IDENTIFYINGSIMILIARITIES AND DIFFERENCES: Have my students creat metaphors that relate old history to new history.
GENERATING AND TESTING HYPOTHESES: Students will make hypotheses on what will be happening in the battles to come during the Civil War.
How you are using metaphors and analogies can really be a cool way to show students how history can teach us a lot about life today
Metaphors are great for students to really personalize their learning. I think that students will really be able to remember this lesson.
i like how you are comparing the old with the new!
