Dear Interactive Teachers,
One of my assignments for my Teaching K-6 Social Studies class was to go to the Tampa Bay History Center. One MLK Day, I celebrated by visiting the history center. I had so much fun! I learned how to take in the history, as a student, so I can take my class here in my future career. I played on horse saddles and felt like I was really horseback riding. My favorite experience was during a 15 minute film. The theatre was set up in Florida's forest. It had a screen and two active models. The film was about the Seminoles tribe in Florida. I loved learning about this because it showed the Seminoles perspective and the American General's. Also, I am currently teaching a Native Americans unit in second grade so it was great to learn both perspectives of what happened toNative Americans in American history. I think this is very important for my teaching because I want to teach my students both perspectives so they can learn everything about history and follow what they believe in. I bought a graphite arrowhead for my students to write with and connect to the Native Americans they are learning about. They loved it! I know have a better understanding of fully learning the content you are teaching, I can make my Native American lessons so much more interesting because I learned fun facts from the Tampa Bay History Center.
Look in my gallery to see pictures from my trip at the museum!
Sincerely,
Miss Hester
