Welcome, Cohort!!!

Welcome, Team!

 

Let’s use this space to share our experiences with one another….the good, the bad, the exciting, the funny, the sad, the enlightened, the  mundane, the exalted….whatever you’d like to share with us.  We have the most wonderful team, and I’m so delighted that I’m fortunate to be part of your team….

 

I’ll start

Yesterday, March 25, 2009, I went to the Library of Congress PD.  What an amazing resource for primary documents that span the beginnings of our nation to the present time. 

It’s full of maps, photographs, music, video clips, literature, newspaper articles, etc. 

It looks like a treasure trove of ideas for teachers and students.  It has lessons, units, etc. on a wide variety of topics.  You can begin to browse the site at:

Take a look, and let me know what you think.  If you’d like, I can share some of the ideas and materials that we reviewed yesterday.  Just let me know.
