Compare Personal Accounts With The Disasters Themselves
In this book collection, students learn that perspective can change the way we look at historical events. Nonfiction accounts are told by children around the world who experienced tsunamis; the San Francisco earthquake is told from the perspective of a firefighter, a girl whose home was destroyed, and a Chinatown resident; and the Titanic disaster is described from all angles: the captain to the crew and the wealthiest to the poorest. Each includes a glossary and index. In the historical fiction books, three young boys are imagined as survivors of three different disasters.
In the U.S alone, nearly 30% of educational standards are overhauled, revised or edited each year. Tracking these changes demands the full-time expertise and we have the tool to manage those standards, so you can trust us as the leader in standards alignment. Correlations are made for all State, National, and Common Core Standards. In addition, we have Head Start standards for early childhood. And most recently, we’ve added both National STEM Standards and Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).
