Today in class, students began with a warm-up question on the philosophies of Aristotle: What did Aristotle mean when he said, "Man Is By Nature a Political Animal"? How does Aristotle's statement relate to these forms of government: Tyranny, Oligarchy, and Democracy? How do these ideas affect the idea of the "Common Good"? EXPLAIN.
After the period's warm-up question, the instructor continued with lecture notes and PowerPoint over the Forms of Government and their impact on the development of democracy in history (and throughout the Modern World).

About Me
- Mr. Gull
- Before I became a high school history teacher, I spent 14 years in the corporate world where I specialized in Healthcare Administration. In addition, I spent 3 1/2 years participating in professional sports (Satellite Professional Tennis Tour and Professional Golf Mini-Tours). In 2005, I found I really loved working in the classroom, so I returned to graduate school to earn my Masters degree in Education. I CAN'T IMAGINE DOING ANYTHING ELSE...I LOVE WORKING WITH MY STUDENTS!
