Virtual Colonial Days

Windows to the Past, Knowledge for the Future

Webinars for Oklahoma History Students

Oklahoma fifth-grade classes were invited to use 21st-century technology to connect with 17th and 18th-century Americans during Virtual Colonial Days presented by the Oklahoma Foundation for Excellence.          

“Windows to the Past, Knowledge for the Future” is the theme of the webinar series, in which historical interpreters offered lessons from the past to help students become engaged and responsible citizens for the future.

The 45-minute webinars included opportunities for students to interact and submit questions to historical interpreters via the Q&A feature of Zoom.

Recordings of the sessions are available below. Each of the session listings includes optional lesson plans and hands-on activities.
