Today, students started with the following Warm-Up question: Who were the Medici? What were some of the positive and negative elements of their leadership? What is Patronage? What did the Medici use patronage to achieve? EXPLAIN.
Following the discussion of the warm-up question, the instructor introduced the lecture notes dealing with the Reformation and Martin Luther's teachings. Near the end of the period, students were given an excerpt from Niccolo Machiavelli's The Prince...they were asked to read the passage and answer some of the critical thinking questions related to the reading. The instructor will discuss at the beginning of Friday's class period.

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!
