Students in Maggie Hershey-Mason’s class created their own country as part of Maggie’s “States and Nations” Curriculum Unit
Curriculum units, written by participating Fellows, stand as the most tangible result of CTI seminars. The curriculum unit serves as a vehicle for developing and adapting what a Fellow learns in the seminar so that it may be applied to the classroom. All seminars will include time for each Fellow to discuss his or her curriculum unit progress so all seminar participants may work collaboratively to ready units for publication. Once units are complete, they will be posted here and on the Yale National Initiative website so they may be shared with other CMS teachers, other school districts, and across the country.
