HISTORY RESOURCES

Teaching history as a relevant, meaningful up-to-date, and interesting subject is very important. History was/is to many students the most boring subject ever: names, dates, places - without meaning to them personally. When good teachers bring history to life - it can be a transforming experience to the students.

Our head of our History Department is an incredible leader - thank you Keith. He freely shares resources, hints, tips, and directions creating an incredible team of history teachers. Kudos Keith. One of the resources he shared recently is the ABC-CLIO site about the Olympics... a teachable moment. Check it out at:

Look for the down-loadable lesson on the Olympics - excellent!
