You’re Invited to Civic Saturday
Civic Saturday is an initiative that originated out of Washington state by Eric Liu and is now going nationwide in an effort to promote civic dialogue and coming together as a community around civic ideals. Liu is the offer of several books about civic life; his most recent book is entitled “You’re More Powerful than You Think: A Citizen’s Guide to Making Change Happen.” Right now in America, we stand a country divided -- and this moment of anxiety and divisiveness calls for a new approach to maintaining a healthy, active citizenry. In a country held together not by race or religion, but by a common creed, how do we maintain any sense of national cohesion? And how do we convert our ideals into action? These are the questions that we confront and answer with Civic Saturday. Join us for Des Moines' first Civic Saturday! FREE and open to all. This event is taking place on May 5th from 9:30-12:00 with a book signing by Eric Liu immediately following the event. The event is sponsored by several local partners such as ISEA, Vote Smart, Iowa Student Learning Institute, University of Iowa, the Department of Human Rights, and more.Get your free ticket at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/civic-saturday-des-moines-tickets-43911584732.

National Humanities Center Releases A Guide to Thinking and Learning in the Humanities
the National Humanities Center’s Education Programs are undertaking a project to develop a deeper portfolio of curricular materials and help set standards for humanities education that highlight differences among humanities disciplines. Central to this effort is an acknowledgment that each discipline engages its own unique lens through which to approach scholarship and learning — that there is a way of knowing that is equally as important as a specific body of knowledge.
Humanities in Class is a compilation of guides in ten different humanities disciplines that identify the key qualities and practices of those disciplines, considering: What questions are asked? What tools and resources are invaluable? What processes occur? Created to be accessible and flexible and to meet the needs of educators and classrooms at all levels, the guide features media and digital content that helps clarify and establish fluency for each discipline. You can view the guide here.

Ioway Tribe Native American Classroom Resources
The word “Iowa” does not mean beautiful land. The state was named for the Iowa River, and the river was named for the Ioway people. Emmy-nominated filmmakers Kelly and Tammy Rundle of Fourth Wall Films in the Quad Cities have produced three one-hour historical documentary films, Lost Nation: The Ioway 1, 2 & 3, which tell the Ioway Tribes’ story from First Contact in 1700 through the American Indian Movement in the 1970s. These award-winning and critically-acclaimed films, as well as the extra features included on both DVDs, provide a multifaceted and detailed examination of the people for whom the state is named. “Lost Nation” refers to the loss of the Ioway’s land, culture, and language.
Lost Nation: The Ioway provides a powerful and moving case study of the relationship between the early arriving Europeans and the native people. The documentary and its supporting materials can be used to explore the general themes and issues of this relationship, as well as to examine the methods of social science research. This DVD provides a potent look at the past for students of social studies and American history and has the potential to enrich a unit of study in which students conduct interviews, engage in memoir writing, or develop oral story-telling skills for language arts. Multimedia & Internet @ Schools featured review of the Lost Nation: The Ioway DVD
Two special accompanying resources designed for teachers are also available in the form of a Curriculum Guide (upper elementary) and a Teacher’s Guide (Junior/Senior High). The Curriculum Guide was developed by teachers Kathy Jensen and Alice Kurtz. The materials integrate reading and social studies skills. Goals and objectives meet Iowa State standards. Appendices provide maps, center activities, vocabulary, stories for modeling, and a bibliography of children’s books and electronic resources. Skills and strategies include: summarizing, retelling, note taking from print material and film, writing stories, non-fiction research, visual literacy, map skills, and presentation skills. Embedded assessments are provided. Topics include American History, Native American History and Culture, Anthropology, Archaeology and Language Preservation. The Teacher’s Guide was prepared by Colin Betts, Ph.D., Professor of Anthropology at Luther College in Decorah, Iowa. The Guide provides an overview of the film’s content, tips for structuring the film showing in classrooms, teaching themes, questions for reflection and a glossary of key terms.Both resources were designed around the first Ioway film (Lost Nation: The Ioway 1) and DVD. Since then, two additional films (Lost Nation: The Ioway 2&3) have been produced. Both teaching resources will be updated soon to include references to the new films. The Ioway History Resource Package includes all three films on two DVDs, a Public Performance License, the Curriculum Guide, and the Teacher’s Guide. The current update and any future updates will be provided to Ioway Package owners free of charge. More information is available via www.IowayMovie.com. Contact Kelly.Rundle@fourthwallfilms.com
