First, I would like to welcome you to our class blog. I wanted to do a class blog this year so I can provide you with more useful information/materials and get the whole class more involved not only at school but from home. There will be discussion questions, links, photos, assignments, power points, and study guides available to you via the Internet.
Secondly, I am hoping that by having this blog it will allow you the opportunity to catch up on work that you may have missed through absences and other circumstances. Everything from my class will be posted on here so you can make up the work and go over the content that you may have missed.
Lastly, I want all of you to try and participate. This is YOUR blog, not just mine!! The more everyone comments and discusses the better this experience will be for the entire class and myself. If you have any suggestions or there is something that you would like to see changed let me know because I am doing this all for you. No one else will have access to our blog except us, so do not be afraid to participate because only you, your classmates, and me will be able to see it.
I am VERY excited about this year and I can not wait to make you all history lovers! :)
