Who Did We Miss?

The Massachusetts History and Social Science Framework Guiding Principles states that “An effective history and social science education incorporates diverse perspectives and acknowledges that perceptions of events are affected by race, ethnicity, culture, religion, education, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, and personal experience” (2018, p. 13). With this guiding principle in mind, have students review the Massachusetts Honor Roll section through an inclusiveness lens. Challenge students to present nominations for including other important Bay Staters in the spirit of this Guiding Principle for inclusion in a future edition of the resource.
