I taught history and geography at the secondary level in both the UK and the US for twelve years. I am interested in providing quality resources in British, Asian, and Modern European History.

The Cultural History of China: a chronology

The Cultural History of China: a chronology

(0)
This is a chronology in summary form of twenty five of the key events in the cultural history of China. There follows a four page chronology of Chinese history with dates and key events from the last 7000 years. At the end of the document there is a suggested activity where students can use the information to create a timeline of Chinese cultural history. I have my students follow the directions as listed at the end of the chronology. I think this resource is of use for a teacher's own research or to use as a student activity. The work in selecting and compiling this chronology is my own. My main research resource for this information was The Cambridge Illustrated History of China by Patricia Buckley. The download includes a pdf of the chronology itself and a suggested activity, which could be modified.

Beringia - The Evidence for the Land Bridge Theory

This activity includes a background essay on Beringia and the Land Bridge Theory of Migration. It also includes links to four articles and a map which provide further information. There is a suggested activity which asks the students to write a four paragraph essay in which they summarize the evidence, and come to a conclusion about the validity of the land bridge theory. The links were all checked on Dec. 4th 2015.
