Hello and good morning. Today I am going to feature YouTube channels that post documentaries. I love a good documentary. I am always trying to learn new things. As a student, I loved it when a teacher or professor showed a documentary in class, especially in place of a lecture. I also used documentaries in my research too. Professionally, I would rather show a documentary in the classroom than give the students an assignment. YouTube is a great resource for material to show in class whether or not the teacher is in the classroom.
The British seem to produce the best documentaries. Or do they have the best narrators? I think it is a combination of both. I initially enjoyed the narration of David Starkey. However, I have been introduced to a new set of British historians. I want to be Lucy Worsley when I grow up. Helen Castor is also fantastic. Suzannah Lipscomb is awesome. Tracey Borman is someone new I was introduced to. I could easily sit in on a lecture of Mary Beard’s. I can listen to Neil Oliver all day and he made neck gaiters cool before the pandemic. Unfortunately, many of the documentaries get taken down from YouTube due to copyright violations when they are discovered. It is rather disappointing that they do get taken down. I miss Lucy Worsley’s Heroines, Housewives, and Harlots. That said, I do try to use authorized channels for this resource. I also try to provide the Amazon link if there is one available. Reminder, do try to support these historians in their work by purchasing the documentary or subscribing to their podcasts or channels. You can also support these historians by subscribing to HistoryHit: https://access.historyhit.com/ a subscription service like Netflix for historical documentaries. Timeline offers discounts if you want to purchase this service. The following channels are authorized to post documentaries. I am guessing they are authorized since the documentaries they have posted have not been taken down. It could change in the future, but I am not going to guarantee that these channels will not be taken down in the future. Timeline: https://www.youtube.com/c/TimelineChannel/videos This is an authorized channel for British-produced documentaries. There is a wide variety of topics available for the viewer. Vikings, World War II, the harem, ancient world, Tudors, and Knights Templars are among the topics available for viewing. Timeline uploads new content weekly. They have an old Time Team episode as well. This channel was one of the first documentary channels that have popped up in the past couple of years to pop up. Absolute History: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCr5qeBG9g7bGtMGyHG2GzbQ This was the second documentary channel to pop up in the past couple of years. This channel features a mixture of historical-based reality TV, STEM, and what you can find on Timeline. So it is a mix of World War II, You should be able to find something to show to a class with this channel as well. This channel uploads new content three times a week. Odyssey: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCV-yCAXMS-nWrHtORuDfSuQ According to the YouTube Algorithms, this is a brand new history channel. It is only two months old! This channel features documentaries on the ancient world. For the time being, this channel is posting new content weekly. That could change in the future. DW Documentary: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCW39zufHfsuGgpLviKh297Q This is a German channel that shares documentaries both historical and modern documentaries. A teacher should be able to find something no matter what classroom they are teaching in. Some of the documentaries are longer some of the documentaries are shorter. There are documentaries on COVID, Warsaw Ghetto, Turkmenistan, and animal abuse. This is a channel not limited to history. These are a few of the authorized channels for uploading documentaries. This list is current as of the July 28, 2021 date this blog was published. In the future, if more historical documentary channels are created I will be glad to update this list. For now, use these channels as a starting point for a lecture, research, or creating a new learning experience. The question of getting kids involved in genealogy has dogged me for the pas few years. So much so, that every once in a while I work on a genealogy curriculum for schools. I made my own family group sheets, individual cards, pedigree charts and for schools I made an individual worksheet with a few questions for the students to work on. My intent was as the children go through school they build on their genealogies and learn how to research for future science projects, English papers, and social studies projects. Now let the brainstorming begin!
Getting kids into genealogy is hard and going to take time, so you might want to start the process before they are even born! If you have old family photos or pictures, especially those that have grandparents, great-great parents and beyond, I would have a family photo wall in your house! My cousin Keith has a wall like this, with copies of old family photos and people ask about it and he tells them that the people in the photos are grandparents, aunts, and uncles and the like. Having this wall gets the kids familiar with their ancestors from the time their babies. When, kids are really little, do not get too hung up on explaining your genealogy going back to Adam and Eve. Start small. Start with yourself, your siblings, and your grandparents. If your child does something that reminds of you of a story tell your child the story. If you have family time, use that time to share stories about the family or share stories at bedtime. A second suggestion with photos is on a computer, you can take individual ancestors’ or relative’s pictures put them into paint or any photo program and type their names-print off. Get a poster board and draw a tree (similar to a pedigree chart) on it. Put Velcro on the individual pictures and the poster board. During story time, bring out the board and have the child put the photo on the poster and talk about the individual, tell stories or memories about that particular person. You can also take your children places where their ancestors lived and worked. Sometimes, you might be able to show the kids inside the house where their grandpa grew up in, be sure to ask. You can also take them to the cemetery (be sure to teach them proper cemetery etiquette) and show them where their ancestors are buried. Be sure to bring paper and crayons, so they can make etchings of the headstones. My Idea for Incorporating Genealogy into School Curriculum Okay, every once in a while I work on getting some sort of genealogy packet together to bring into the schools. I was a history major in college and doing genealogy while working towards that goal made history even easier. I had stories of my ancestors and corresponded to events in history-Oscar Coen was shot down over France and was missing for several months. Uncle Charles Cutter was an engineer on Underground Railroad. There were only two Cutters from Pelham, New Hampshire who fought in the American Revolution. If you are descended from royalty, you might find yourself muttering “Grandpa” or “Grandma” under your breath, whenever the teacher mentions your blue blooded relations! When a child is in first grade, you get the basic questions, who are your grandparents, who are your parents, and where are your origins? You don’t go any further in family explorations. Well, I want to take it further and teach children research skills that they can take into college and have their own genealogies! Now this is a rough outline of what I had in mind, but I hope there are some good ideas in it. My intent is that when they start, students will have a folder that they will keep throughout their school career and that by the time they enter high school they will know how to research and an actual genealogy binder with all their information in a neat presentation. First and Second Grade: Getting a family tree established with self, siblings, parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, granduncles and grandaunts, and gathering initial photos of relations and short stories and getting country of origins for their families as well. Third and fourth grade: Basic research skills, getting dates and getting great grandparents and their siblings, perhaps a field trip to a local history room or a cemetery is in order. In third grade, they will start keeping a genealogy journal and this is the opportunity for students to interview grandparents and parents about their memories. They record what they interview in their journals. Fifth and Sixth Grade: More Research skills including basic citation. During this period we’re going beyond the four initial generations, I would put the number to at least seven generations, and we’re actually doing an initial set up for their genealogy book, staring with their parents doing an initial write up with photo. Part of their English and Writing classes, students will be required do to a biographical piece and a fictional piece about an ancestor of their choice. Seventh and Eight Grade: Finalize the genealogy books with photos, and stories. Teaching the students more citation-the different formats MLA, Chicago and APA and giving them research tips for the future if and when they want to go beyond their initial school project. If by any chance, need to know some family facts for any class in high school, they’ll have handy their project for that assignment. Actually this happened to my cousin and who do you think he called? That my fellow researchers, is how I would incorporate genealogy into a school curriculum. That concludes my blog on getting kids into genealogy. If there are any additional ideas, fell free to leave your comments below! I hope I had a few good ideas on how to get kids into genealogy. Welp, folks until next time! This blog was originally published on my now abandoned genealogy blog. If you think you're going to get away from your science teacher in a history class, you're very wrong! You can apply the scientific method to a history class! You can see from shows like Secrets of the Castle, Edwardian Farm, Victorian Farm, and Tudor Monastery Farm that there is a science to what they're doing, even though they are living in a historic era. I would call it this type of history, Experimental History.
So the scientific method is this:
So how does that fit into a history class?
Check out this Episode of A Stitch in Time on YouTube and observe how the scientific method is applied to designing and creating a historic outfit. Even historic costumers apply the scientific method to their work when they create costumes for a TV show or play. If at the start of the year, there needs to be a sub in a science classroom and your class is learning about the scientific method, consider showing Secrets of the Castle for a lesson in the scientific method! You can put these questions on a worksheet and the students can answer the questions. Scientific Method - Experimental History Style Secrets of the Castle Questions:
As you can definitely tell, I'm really into history and watching YouTube videos. I also like sharing any documentary I watch with others whether or not it's in a classroom setting or a library setting. I really hope that someone out there will get use out of what I post on this blog.
Today, I'm going to talk about my favorite historians. If you need a filler in the classroom, especially in a history class, look up these historians. Now in no particular order: Lucy Worsley: I love her enthusiasm for history and how she presents each of her documentaries. I love how she throws herself into costumes in order to better participate in each series she presents. My first experience with her was in her series Harlots, Housewives, and Heroines. I really wish I could find that series on YouTube again as it was one of my favorites. Other one I really enjoyed as Suffragettes, I wish YouTube wouldn't have taken that one down either. I would use Fit to Rule and the First Georgians in a classroom setting, even if it's a 20 second clip or you're doing research for a lecture. I am pleased to see her being introduced to American audiences through her royal series. RECOMMENDED: 1) Jane Austen: Behind Closed Doors for an English Literature class, 2) Six Wives with Lucy Worsley, 3) The First Georgians: The German Kings Who Made Britain. Suzannah Lipscomb: I was introduced to her through Time Time, the British edition. I enjoyed how she played off of Tony Robinson and how she explained the finds the Time Team was making. I saw her again in Henry and Anne. Then she did a series on the Six Wives of Henry VIII with Dan Jones, I would combine their interpretation with Worsley's and Starkey's interpretation in a lecture. She is thoughtful narrator and participates in historical experiments. Her Hidden Killers series is excellent. RECOMMENDED: 1) Elizabeth I, and 2) any of her hidden killers of the home series. Helen Castor: I discovered her through Medieval Lives: Birth, Marriage and Death series which was immediately followed up by She Wolves. I find her a thoughtful narrator and writer. I would use Medieval Lives for lecture material. She did a program on Joan of Arc which was fabulous and presented a different view of the saint, which YouTube took down. Her voice is also very soothing to the ear. England's Forgotten Queen: the Life and Death of Lady Jane Grey was excellent, I liked how she explored each day of the nine day's queen. She offers a fresh perspective on the story. She also needs to team up with Lucy more like she did in their series on Versailles. RECOMMENDED: 1) England's Forgotten Queen: The Life and Death of Jane Grey, 2) Joan of Arc: God's Warrior, 3) Medieval Lives: Birth, Marriage and Death. Dan Jones: He is both a journalist and historian and I like his speaking style. I was introduced to him through Britain's Bloodiest Dynasty. Then through Secrets of Great British Castles. He's one the of newest historians I've seen lately. He teamed up with Suzannah Lipscomb to produce Henry VIII and his Six Wives. Secrets of Great British Castles is available on Netflix. RECOMMENDED: Secrets of Great British Castles Bettany Hughes: I stumbled onto this historian on YouTube and her Ancient Worlds series. She researches and works with Ancient history. I enjoyed her episode about the Minotours Island. She did several series on the various Greek gods as well as a series on great minds of the ancient world. She provides good research materials for lectures. RECOMMENDED: Ancient Worlds Series, especially the episode on Athens and Alexandria. Caitlin Doughty has a channel called Ask a Mortician. Doughty is a funeral home director from California. At first glance on, you would think this channel is strictly about the funeral industry and death. However, if you dive deeper, you will discover that she does dive into history. She has videos on recreating Victorian Mourning Practices, Iconic Corpses and answers viewers burning questions like: What happened with the Donner Party? How bodies are handled in a mass death situation? and Can you freeze dry your corpse?
The history videos are especially interesting and she and her team well research that material that's available. She did a series on Iconic Corpses and explores the history behind some interesting corpses. The videos are well put together and I've learned quite a bit from Caitlin's channel. If you need something to pad out a lecture or use it as a writing prompt I recommend you give this channel a look up. You can find something on this channel for your school or home school needs. My Video Top Five Picks: These are not in any specific order The Lake that Never Gives Up Her Dead - I knew Lake Superior was cold, but I didn't know that it could preserve a corpse! The Camloops story was scary and fascinating at the same time, I was especially freaked out with the fact there's a corpse that floats around the shipwreck following divers. She kayaks on Lake Superior with a relative of an Edmund Fitzgerald victim and they talk about the wreck and what happened. The Massive LA Disaster You've Never Heard Of - This episode is about the dam failure in Los Angeles. Caitlyn takes a trip to where the disaster happened. She explains what lead to the failure and how the dead were taken care of. She visits the original site of the dam and see what remains. That part was the most fascinating of the video: seeing the remains of the dam. Oven Crypts of New Orleans - The oven crypts of New Orleans are a hold over from their time as a French/Spanish colony. Then she explores what makes American Burial traditions different in comparison. She explains the history of the oven crypts and how they work. It's the ultimate in reusable burial. This was the first time I have heard of oven crypts. Visiting Hawaii's Tragic and Remote Leprosy Colony - I heard about this colony because there was a lighthouse on the Island and now I learned more about this colony. She takes the time to explain how the colony was set up, why it was set up, and what happened to it's people as well as the survivors. It is a sad but fascinating history. Iconic Corpse: 93 Years of Vladimir Lenin - An earlier video of hers that details the preservation of the corpse of Vladimir Lenin. It is crazy the amount of preservation and studies that went into keeping the corpse of Vladimir Lenin pristine. The body that's on display is no longer the real Lenin. That is most fascinating thing about this video: is that it is not really Lenin. Caitlin's also an author, she has written several books on death. You can check out her Amazon Author page here. You can get her books in physical form, kindle form, and audiobooks. The team works on the Cherry and potato harvest and plans a trip to the seaside. Alex and Peter look for ladders for the cherry harvest and Ruth makes plans with what she can make with the cherries. The team celebrates the cherry harvest with a festival and lots of cherry pies. Then they take a trip to the seaside. Ruth makes a new period swimsuit and tries it out. At the seaside they are entertained by period performers. They also take a dip in the sea in period swimsuits.
