Engaging students in the grade 9 United States History course and the grade 10 Local, State, and National Government course are two of the most important methods for increasing civics literacy, preparing college career-ready students, and creating tomorrow's responsible citizens. The Bladensburg Social Studies Department is committed to addressing this issue by involving our students in National History Day. The 2021-2022 theme is Debate and Diplomacy in History: Successes, Failures, and Consequences. We are looking to help students build historical solid argumentation skills. Using primary sources, such as the requesting computer, and other materials that focus on the skills of historical argumentation to develop strategies to help our students think like a historian and develop a solid historical argument. Through hands-on activities, our students will prepare a project based on the National History Day standards. Our students will choose a historical topic related to the annual theme and then conduct primary and secondary research. They will look through libraries, archives, and museums (virtual), conduct oral history interviews, and visit historical sites. After they have analyzed and interpreted their sources and have concluded the significance of their topic, they will then be able to present their work in one of five ways: as a paper, an exhibit, a performance, a documentary, or a website. Concluding, students will present their designs to their peers in class and later to the school community in a schoolwide National History Day Fair or assembly.
