Beginning+of+the+year

===The school year is off to a great start! For Social Studies students will need a blue binder with five dividers. There are five sections in their binders that need to be marked (Warmups, Classwork, Homework, Notes, and Tests and Quizzes). The students need to bring back a signed syllabus as well as a few extra pencils for class.===

My Teaching Philosophy
All students can learn. Every student who enters my door is able to learn and understand United States History. Expectations in this class are fair and reasonable all students can achieve and become successful. We will be using many different types of technology and projects and with this comes the need for students to preserve and overcome some things that they might not really love. However with all of this learning will occur and a students understanding of history will grow and foster for the rest of their life!!
