2013 NEW YORK CITY HISTORY DAY

Turning Points in History: People, Ideas, Events

The Frederick A.O. Schwarz Children's Center invites your students to participate in New York City History Day on SUNDAY, MARCH 10, 2013. New York City History Day is an education program that engages students in grades 6-12 in the discovery and interpretation of historical topics. By participating in History Day, students can research topics related to the annual theme, Turning Points in History, and can express themselves creatively through various formats such as exhibit boards, documentaries, websites, papers, and performances.

The History Day methodology supports teachers and schools as they work towards aligning curriculum and instructional priorities with Common Core Standards demonstrated through College and Career Ready student performance tasks.

National History Day was awarded the prestigious 2011 National Humanities Medal by President Barack Obama. Read more about it here.
