Have a class discussion about the sentences you identified as passive voice and their significance in the context of historical writing.Discuss as a class why the author might have used passive voice in those sentences. Think about how it affects the tone and focus of the writing.

Choose a different historical event to research (e.g., the construction of the Great Wall of China, the moon landing, the discovery of penicillin, etc.).Research the event and create a short presentation on how that historical event was carried out. Find facts, details, and historical context. Emphasize the use of passive voice in their presentations to describe the actions involved in the event.
