Lesson Plan

The History Workshop provides a lesson plan that introduces students to the history of Mitchelville- one of the first self-governing Black communities, located on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. The lesson will help students explore how researchers combine historical and archaeological data to answer research questions about the historical sites. Students will learn how a variety of primary sources and artifacts related to the occupation of Mitchelville contribute to answering research questions.
