WHS T-BAR Grant

We are an action research team of five history teachers, supported by a Teacher Based Reform (T-BAR) grant through CSUChico. We are asking two questions:

1) What is writing in history, its qualities and characteristics?
2) How can we teach students to write that way (using disciplinary literacy practices)?
