Wow, wow, wow! This is a really impressive unit. Alignment with Montana standards makes it ready to use. I grew up in Vermont and there was ongoing conflict with the Abenaki people (the Abenaki at that time were not a federally recognized nation). My first exposure to outright racism was through the comments, newspaper editorials, and discussions I heard as a child about the Abenaki people who were seeking land rights.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to reading this book when I have time to step away from grad work. Would you mind if I shared this blog with a few friends that still teach in VT? They would be hugely appreciative. Thanks, Alli
Of course, Alli! Originally, we had a link to an internet hunt that incorporated much of what you see, but of course as of last Thursday, the website no longer exists. We had to utilize plan B, which is what you see! I actually like our blog much better. Please do share with your friends back home!!! Thanks for your feedback!
