Due to the pace (recording and absorption) of lecture and classroom notes with the first unit, the instructor worked with the students today on completing the background information on the Pre-Columbian and Exploration period of the Americas. Towards the end of the lecture and discussion, additional information about early colonization was introduced...but the remainder of the specifics about the Southern, Middle and New England Colonies will be introduced during Wednesday's class period. The worksheets on the realities and interpretations of Jamestown was delayed until the introduction of the Chesapeake Bay characteristics (Wednesday and Thursday).
Tonight's Homework: Continue with Chapter Reading in American Pageant and continue working on the Chapter Questions (Chapters 1-4).
About Me
- Mr. Gull
- Before I became a high school history teacher, I spent 14 years in the corporate world where I specialized in Healthcare Administration. In addition, I spent 3 1/2 years participating in professional sports (Satellite Professional Tennis Tour and Professional Golf Mini-Tours). In 2005, I found I really loved working in the classroom, so I returned to graduate school to earn my Masters degree in Education. I CAN'T IMAGINE DOING ANYTHING ELSE...I LOVE WORKING WITH MY STUDENTS!
