To show what they have learned from this site, challenge students to create an online infographic to share using Visme.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

MidEast Backgrounder - CNNFyi
Grades
6 to 12tag(s): arab (9), israel (15), middle east (47), salem (5)
In the Classroom
Take advantage of the free lesson plan on this site guiding teachers on successful ways to use this site in their classroom. This site can also be used as a learning center or station during a unit on one or more of the conflicts in the Middle East. Save this site as a favorite on classroom computers to allow for easy student access and retrieval. Have students research further on the site one of the specific conflicts with the intentions of presenting their results to the class. Have students use a tool such as Zeemaps, reviewed here. Zeemaps allows students to create audio recordings AND choose a location (on a map) where the story takes place. Students can retell the events of the conflict in a way that visually corresponds with their descriptions. This would be a great resource for a Government or Cultural Geography class.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
