o the teaching and learning of history.

Teaching Beyond the Timeline is a practical guide for teachers looking to transform history in their classroom. China Harvey and Lisa Herzig share the rationale and research behind shifting to a thematic approach and the essential ingredients for a thematic course, including:

    Demonstrating historical relevance and engaging through current events Centering identity and inclusion Using an inquiry-based approach

Using these tools of thematic teaching can help your students develop a deeper understanding of history and see its significance in their own lives.

Each chapter provides a step-by-step process and the tools for organizing units and lessons around central themes with your students in mind. Sample unit maps, lesson plans, and student work are provided to help you visualize teaching history thematically. Online resources, including downloadable planning forms and teaching tools, give you everything you need to redesign and teach your middle and high school history course.


"Teaching thematically allows students to make meaning and to draw connections between the past, the present, and the future. Teaching thematically transforms history from something to recall to something to explore with curiosity." --Sarah-SoonLing Blackburn, Ed.D
