"Texas Originals in the Classroom" will take place on Zoom from 5:00–6:15 p.m. CT on January 28. The webinar will introduce teachers to our Texas Originals curriculum. Texas Originals, developed by Humanities Texas and Houston Public Media, is a radio series profiling individuals who have had a profound influence on Texas history and culture, many of whom are featured in the seventh-grade Texas history TEKS. The curriculum provides activities and lessons to integrate Texas Originals into the classroom with expectations for reading, writing, and using accepted social studies conventions and practices. Signe Fourmy of The University of Texas at Austin will lead the webinar.
