Today, at the beginning of class, the instructor worked with the students to finish the analysis and discussion regarding using APPARTS strategy to work with primary and secondary source material. The students answered the worksheet questions using the secondary source from Time Magazine (The Case Against Summer Vacation). Following this exercise, the students worked on an analysis of a visual source using OPTIC and SMELL strategies to identify and critique information seen in the visual (list of emigrants heading to American colonies...who are they?).

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!
