Books Songs and Other Magic | Historathon Catch Up Update Chat Reflection #historathon #historybooks @bookssongsandothermagic | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 47 minutes ago.
This is a video where I return to the Historathon after a bit of a gap - and discuss the gap and what I want to do about it. Ultimately I want to do some catching up in the next couple of months and see Q3 as having some Q2 in it too so that I don't ignore stuff that I want to read but didn't get to.
The Historathon is a great year long event where we look at History books from different periods.
The goal is to read, discuss, and spotlight works of history, and to encourage reluctant readers to give history a try. The calendar year will be divided into three-month blocks, with each block focusing on a particular period of time:
Jan-March = Prehistory-500 CE
April-June = 500-1500
July-Sept = 1500-1820
Oct-Dec = 1820-Present
To participate, simply read a work of history that falls into the time period for each quarterly segment of the year. Read more if you’d like! Tailor the choices to your interests or try something completely new.
Historathon "Side Quests": We will also be encouraging/participating in history-related activities throughout the year, including watching historical films/documentaries, trying historical recipes, listening to historical music, etc. Feel free to join us!
We will be using the hashtag: #historathon2024
