High blood pressure for me, too (I need to lose some weight, since I'm sure that doesn't help it.)
My students would definitely say I am kind. I am also extremely fair, and treat students with the same level of respect that I would like to see...
This is definitely too much. There is a wealth of primary sources and other supplemental materials out there that you can use to add more depth to...
Good advice so far. When I went to college, I majored and history, with a focus on secondary social studies. The logistics of the programs vary...
Yes, I always do! I am usually teaching a class that's out of control. I have had two nightmares this year. In one, I was back at the elementary...

The teacher who maintains that website teaches World, so hopefully that will help. I taught World History for over ten years, so let me know if...
