    Suggested Activities To Teach Past-Time Narrative
    Segment 1: Overview
    This segment introduces past-time narrative. It contains a narrative text, activities for using the text as a source of information on past tense and perfect aspect verbs in context, and prompts to direct students to write narratives of their own
    ACTIVITY A. Beginning a student notebook for daily writing.
    Grammar focus: varies
    Writing focus: developing fluency
    1. Students write in the notebook every day for the remainder of the quarter unless an exam or other hour-long activity is scheduled. The notebooks can be collected once a week; however, they are not graded and grammar is not checked. I typically read and respond to content. The daily writing gives students an opportunity to develop fluency without being overly concerned about accuracy. Because they will write in response to student-generated prompts, they have a measure of control over the subject matter. Since the prompts are related to the discourse type being studied at the time, they may elicit some of the grammatical items found in that cluster.
    2. Begin class by brainstorming topics. Narrative tells what happened: when do we use (read/write/speak) narrative? In what situations? What are some examples? Examples on the board. Perhaps to include: talking to friends, telling them about what we've done, writing to friends, writing applications that ask for autobiographies, for example, if you apply to some graduate programs at Georgia Tech; newspaper/magazine news/interest stories, stories in fiction, history, business reports/scientific reports, police reports, obituaries. What are some questions that require narrative answers? Write the questions on the board.

    On January 16, 1899, N.O. Murphy, governor of the Territory of Arizona, recommended that the unused territorial building erected in Flagstaff in 1893, be put to use as a normal school. Henry Ashurst, Coconino County Representative to the Legislature, introduced House Bill 44 on February 6, 1899 which authorized the establishment of the Northern Arizona Normal School. The first term began September 11, 1899, under the direction of Professor A.N. Taylor with Miss Frances Bury assisting. Twenty-three students enrolled the following week. The first graduating class, in 1901, consisted of four women who received life certificates to teach in Arizona. The school has undergone several name changes: in 1925 to Northern Arizona State Teachers College; in 1928 to Arizona State Teachers College of Flagstaff; and in 1945 to Arizona State College of Flagstaff. In 1964, the Board of Regents approved university status for ASC. In May, 1966, the current name of Northern Arizona University was officially adopted.

In 1925, Carter G. Woodson, an educator and historian began campaigning among schools, journals and black newspapers calling for a 'Negro History Week' to be celebrated. This would honor the importance of black achievement and contribution in the United States. He was able to institute this 'Negro History Week' in 1926 during the second week of February. This time was chosen because Abraham Lincoln's and Frederick Douglass' birthdays occurred then. Woodson was awarded the Springarn Medal from the NAACP for his accomplishment. In 1976, Negro History Week turned into Black History Month which we celebrate today. Read more about

    PRESENTATION ON HEALTH ISSUES IN AFRICA KICKS OFF BLACK HISTORY MONTH AT UC DAVIS MEDICAL CENTER
    SACRAMENTO, Calif
    .) — UC Davis Children's Hospital pediatrician Michael Lucien and his wife Darreis, a registered nurse, will kick off Black History Month with a presentation on the annual mission they make to Africa to provide education on medical care and disease prevention.

Description: Describe to students the importance of the baobab tree to Africans. Procedure: Read aloud a book about the baobab or monkey-bread tree. Point out the difference between biological facts and legends about the tree. Emphasize these facts:
    • The baobab is one of the world's oldest plants.
    • It can live as long as a thousand years.
    • It can grow sixty feet high, forty feet wide, and ten feet thick.
    • It is sometimes called the upside-down tree because, when the leaves fall, its stunted limbs, protruding from a grotesquely thickened trunk, look like roots pointing at the sky.
    • The baobab is a succulent plant so soft that a bullet can pass through it.
    • Its spongy inner tissue stores water to help it survive drought.

    Frederick Douglass
    (c. 1817-1895)
    Abolitionist Born in Talbot County, Maryland, he was sent to Baltimore as a house servant at the age of eight, where his mistress taught him to read and write. Upon the death of his master he was sent to the country to work as a field hand. During his time in the South he was severely flogged for his resistance to slavery. In his early teens he began to teach in a Sunday school which was later forcibly shut down by hostile whites. After an unsuccessful attempt to escape from slavery, he succeeded in making his way to New York disguised as a sailor in 1838. He found work as a day laborer in New Bedford, Massachusetts, and after an extemporaneous speech before the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society became one of its agents. Douglass quickly became a nationally recognized figure among abolitionists. In 1845 he bravely published his
