Writing on This Day in History

Writing On This Day in History is a fun way to combine writing with history. Each day of the year will feature multiple prompts for your students to choose from that will require historical research and encourage students to make history real by answering questions about their own thoughts and opinions about what they have learned.

Who was Lorenzo de Medici, and would you have liked him? What was the Reconquista, and what effect did it have on Columbus’ discovery of the New World? These are only two of the hundreds of questions that will be a part of this continuing series.
