SUMMARY:Still the Indispensable Man? Washington at the 250th
DESCRIPTION:Can the 21st century still refer to George Washington as “The Indispensable Man” as historian James Flexner asserted in the middle of the 20th century?\nJoin George Washington’s Mount Vernon for a workshop at the Idaho State Museum that will trace Washington’s experiences from childhood to the eve of revolution, analyze the integral part slavery served from the day he was born until the day he died, and examine his presidency with a focus on his declining a third term as President.\nPedagogically, there will be a throughline of reading for content and context using primary sources to encourage deeper learning about Washington’s life. With an emphasis on the teaching of visual images and reading closely to reveal more than the usual textbook synopsis, the workshop will provide methods for classroom analysis of primary sources.\nTeachers MUST teach in a formal K-12 classroom or school setting.\n
