TOOBs are long tubes of various themed characters. They represent historical figures, animals, foods, nature, etc. I am requesting the TOOBs about U.S. landmarks, U.S. Historical Figures, Jamestown [the early settlers], food, musical instruments, trees, and animals that were native to North America. My students have special needs and they learn the best through manipulatives; it is difficult for them to imagine how the world was years ago and to learn from those mistakes. By utilizing figurines, I will be able to explain some of the reasons behind the different wars. My students will try to imagine how they felt as the various different characters throughout U.S. History. We will discuss the relationships between the different types of people, how the Native Americans and the Settlers interacted, slavery and the Civil War, and the cultural differences caused wars and dangerous situations. We will create a tolerance bill of rights for our classroom, describing the behaviors that are inappropriate or appropriate in our classroom based on U.S. history examples.
