History Day®: Collaborating with Local Museums to Lift Hidden Histories LIMITED
Thursday August 14, 2025 10:00am - 11:00am EDT
Room 2
National History Day ® is a program in which students in grades 3 –12 choose a historical topic and dive deeply into the past by conducting extensive research in libraries, archives, museums, and historical societies. They then present their conclusions and evidence through papers, exhibits, performances, documentaries, or websites. Through this process, students develop skills in historical thinking, communication, and a deeper awareness of local/regional history and the many untold or neglected histories. The Hamtramck Historical Museum and David Hales will share their History Day collabration and how it has benefited the community
