National History Day makes history come alive for
America's youth by engaging them in the discovery of the historic, cultural
and social experiences of the past.
Through hands-on experiences and presentations, today's youth are better able
to inform the present and shape
the future. NHD inspires children through exciting competitions and
transforms
teaching through project-based curriculum and instruction.
As part of your social studies average you will complete a project on one of
the topics that we have learned about in each nine weeks (Big Idea Project).
As an alternative, you may choose to work on a year-long project where you
research, plan, and create an entry for the National History Day contest.
Participation and successful completion of the NHD project will take care of
meeting the project requirements for all 4 nine weeks. This will be one
project that you develop in a group or on your own over the course of the
year. Rules, Theme, and Entry requirements are listed at the National
History
Day Project Website below.
