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.
