_____________________________________________________ Welcome to Kansas History Day! This site is designed to provide information for students, teacher, parents, and others interested in the History Day program. Portions of this site have been adapted, with permission from the Washington State History Day website. What is History Day? History Day is an activity in which students in grades 6–12 choose a topic and dive deeply into the past by conducting extensive research to present their conclusions and evidence through papers, exhibits, performances, documentaries, or websites, moving through a series of contest levels where they are evaluated by dedicated historians, educators, and community leaders. Through this process, students develop skills in communication, project management, and historical thinking. For teachers it offers practical models for integrating KSDE standards in the classroom that improves test scores on reading, math, and science assessments and prepares students for college level work. 2012 Washington State History Day Preview Video This program is possible through the efforts of dedicated volunteers and generous donors.
