Join PBS LearningMedia on November 18th at 6:30 pm ET for an engaging conversation with Ken Burns, Sarah Botstein, and David Schmidt, the filmmakers of The American Revolution.
Through this discussion, moderated by “America’s Government Teacher,” Sharon McMahon, participants will learn about the process of creating a historical documentary, consider the power of visual storytelling to engage with the past, and discover opportunities to use this film in the classroom with PBS LearningMedia’s newest collection Ken Burns in the Classroom: The American Revolution.
The resources in the collection will support teachers in connecting students to the Revolutionary era and its legacies today in relatable and meaningful ways. This conversation is part of the film’s premiere week and takes place right before the third episode airs on PBS at 8 pm ET.
This event is intended for educators teaching social studies in grades 3-12, as well as other educators, including instructional coaches and curriculum specialists in social studies. When registering, attendees will have the opportunity to submit a question that may be asked during the event. Register for free here.
