Travelling

I love to travel and I encourage my students to travel as much as they can! I believe that for students to be able to make informed decisions in life, they have to get out of their "bubble." I even do EF Tours to Europe with my students and can't wait to go next summer! We are going to the celebrations of  D-Day and will be in Normandy, London, and Paris. And it's all focused on WWII history. How exciting!! I often use my own photos in class to demonstrate places or sizes. Below are some of the photos I have taken on my travels.

Shower Curtain Review Project

In an AP class, the review at the end of the year can be brutal! I found this wonderful activity from the WHAP Facebook group I am in and it's amazing. Students must review all six time periods and put it on a shower curtain. Each time period has a map, SPICE chart, diagrams, etc. My students really enjoyed it and felt that they got a lot out of the project. I do this as an end-of-year review project instead of a Final Exam. I'd love to hear your feedback on them!

We hung them out on the fences and students were paired together and peer graded one time period on each shower curtain. It was windy!  Fun Fact: Our principal LOVED them and actually borrowed a couple to cover the speakers at graduation!
