Revolutionary Heart is much more than a biography.  It’s a walk through the 19th century, its fascinating people, politics and culture, and a guide to understanding how the life and times of Clarina Nichols can help us look at our current situation in a new light.

So it was only natural that when we decided to make Revolutionary Heart accessible to high school teachers, we’d load it with so many activities, insights and information, it would be much more than a Teacher’s Guide!

We asked history and social science teachers what they wanted in a TG, and we gave it to them!  Here’s what you’ll find in every chapter:

1. •Questions and Suggested Answers that test students’ comprehension of that chapter
   

2. •Extend & Enrich: Advanced questions that challenge students to apply history to their own lives; to analyze people’s motives; to debate the issues in the book; and to learn to think critically about what they read
   

3. •Historical Context: What was happening politically in the country during the period covered by that chapter of the book
   

4. •History-Making Technology: The scientific and technological breakthroughs that marked the 19th century
   

5. •Handouts that test students’ geography skills and their ability to read and understand primary documents — including many used in the writing of the book
   

Additionally, many chapters include:

1. •Literary Links: Poetry and verse that capture the spirit of the age
   

2. •Go online: Links to the Web for the curious history student
   

We have packaged this Teacher’s Guide with a special 40% discounted class set that includes 20 copies of Revolutionary Heart and the audiobook Frontier Freedom Fighter. Take your students back in time — and then bring them back with stimulating questions that make the past come alive in your classroom!
