Welcome Back Autumn 2010

The 2010-11 school year officially begins tomorrow. I'm excited to get back into the classroom and to meet all of my new students. I have had a wonderful summer--I've posted some pictures here of some of my favorite adventures from the past three months--but the weather's getting cooler, soccer practices have already started, and my thoughts turn to the year ahead. We will start off with the identity unit, one of my favorite units to teach, and there's a lot to look forward to. For students and parents who have found there way here, you can look forward to periodic posts and occasional assignments for my advisees and Humanities students. For now, if you have any questions or comments about 7th grade Humanities, me, or anything at all, feel free to post them as comments!
