Teachers Have 25 Chances to Win
A 35th anniversary edition of Howard Zinn's A People's History of the United States is being released, and you have a chance to win a classroom set (35 copies). Thanks to a donation from HarperCollins, the Zinn Education Project is giving away five class sets of books and 20 single copies. The five class sets will be selected from the strongest responses and the 20 single copies will be raffled to all entries. Contest runs November 1-30, 2015.
To enter, please use our online form to tell us: - Which lesson(s) have you used from the Zinn Education Project website?
- Please select one of these lessons and describe in detail the impact in the classroom. Include student comments and responses, if available.
