Volunteer Virtual Classroom Speaker - U.S 3rd Grade: History- Was It Li

The volunteer opportunity below is a request from an educator for you to interact with his or her classroom. The interaction is virtual, so as long as you have a good internet connection and a computer or device with a camera, you can participate from anywhere. The goal of the interaction is to bring real‑world application, professional experience and relevance to what the educator is teaching.

Once you accept the request for one of the dates proposed by the educator, Nepris will provide support and next steps to help you prepare and make sure you are successful. You can also highlight this experience to strengthen the volunteer section of your Linked In profile.

Third Grade students in Kansas City, Kansas Public Schools are currently working on an ELA unit focused on Colonial America. We would like to speak with someone who works in a field that studies and learns from history (historian, museum, teacher, etc.). We would like to hear a little bit about your career and how your work with history, as well as what life was like for the American colonists.

We would also like approximately 10‑15 minutes of the 30‑minute session to be available for student questions about what life was like in Colonial America. This session will be open to all 3rd grade classes in KCKPS, so expect multiple classes. Any realia or visuals you could share with us would be greatly appreciated and we look forward to speaking with you in May!
