Some things that I'm going to be sure to do next year...
-Student info sheets at the beginning of the year...did this my first year and it helped get to know interests and outside of school stuff, didn't do it this past year which was a mistake
-I want to try Remind101...if only Blackboard would send messages to phones!
WHII
-moving up to honors so notes need to be more student centered, no more fill in the blanks! Need to figure out how to be half-way between Standard style notes and APUSH...
-Start the year with Geog again, vocab and battleship definitely, and add back in the map project, but get rid of those worksheets
-World in 1500...changes notes to a SPEARS cooperative learning activity
-tests with different versions and more writing, even just short answers
APUSH
-want to do more writing workshops (organizational categories before essay #1) and have students record in their folders after each essay is handed back what they need to work on to improve...did this for the last essay and it helped
-integrate more articles into class, start with the 3-2-1s again
