The Dustbin of History
Activities work best when they make real connections, include clear visual cues, and are scaffolded to provide the right amount of challenge for varied student needs. I worked in the tech industry for 5 years before I found my calling as a teacher. I rely heavily on these tech roots to inspire unique, adaptable, and engaging interactive assignments. These assignments build upon my 15 years as an educator where I have had the opportunity to work with students at all levels of capability in almost every social science subject.
Whether you are looking for killer graphic organizers, engrossing projects, innovative simulations or clear and concise worksheets, the Dustbin has what you need to elevate your teaching.
