Minnesota History Bundle - PowerPoints, Projects, and Readings

This bundle includes all of my course syllabus, PowerPoints, note outlines that go with the PowerPoints, discussion questions for Brenda Child's "My Grandfather's Knocking Sticks," and questions from Risjord's "A Popular History of Minnesota." The items were created for a high school CITS (College in the Schools) course but the presentations could be modified to meet a 6th grade classroom's need.
