- AP US History: today, students will create and present PowerPoint slides for pages 429-440 in the Divine textbook. Objectives include: can students explain how the Union and Confederacy "adjusted to total war?"
- AP US Government: today, students will prepare for a panel discussion (scheduled for tomorrow) on their group public policy project. Objectives include: can students research a current policy, present it, and debate the efficacy of the selected policy?
This blog originated as a classroom homework site for my AP US History and AP Government students (some of the original posts remain); however, I have left the classroom and, as an instructional leader, assist teachers with instruction, curriculum, and assessment. This "revised" blog contains my thoughts and observations on improving instruction for all learners.
