| It is a privilege to work with you every day, and I consider each of you to be unique and full of promise. We live in a world where people move fast and news moves even faster. As your teacher, I am committed to helping you understand how we got here, and where we're going. I approach teaching in a unique way - history is a story, complete with comedy and tragedy, love and hate, and real lessons that can help us live better lives. Those messages are shared through lessons I deliver to you - they can be wrapped in simulations, games, or by simpy reading an old document written from the time period we are studying.
Understanding history is sometimes like looking into a fishbowl: you can see everything, but miss the smallest details and you miss the point! My job is not only to educate, but to inspire you to becomebetter than you were yesterday. Give a man a fish and he'll eat today - teach him how to fish, and he can eat for a lifetime! In the coming weeks and months. you'll witness exciting additions to this website. Like our history class, we'll start small and work our way up. Check back here often, and tell me what I can do to improve. Afterall, the worthy journey is never easy! I'm glad you're accompanying me down this road of history- mayyour day tomorrow be better than theone lived today. ROCK ON! C |
