It's an honor to share my resources with you here on TPT in addition to sharing my lesson ideas on my blog, rethinkhistory.org

MY TEACHING STYLE

Historical inquiries where students read primary and secondary sources, analyze arguments and evidence, and then synthesize this information to answer deep historical questions.
