History Detective is a classroom ready, online learning friendly podcast. It covers many topics aligned to high school history curriculums. The History Detective resources are designed to be used in conjunction with the podcast. Each episode will have an accompanying student worksheet and a PowerPoint presentation focusing on vocabulary acquisition, historical thinking, source analysis and guided research activities.
