Cool WHAP

We spend every day learning so much about history, and how the past is prologue in this class.  And this year, our students are simply amazing.  There is such an amazing enthusiasm and vibe in our classes this year, that I can not wait to get to school everyday.  We have recently completed our unit on 1450 - 1750.  This brings us fully into the Modern Era of world history, and everything that we discuss from this point forward (I argue) takes on added significance to our current culture/world.  We are now entering into the even more complicated era of Industrialism and political revolutions - and our students are as curious as ever. 

But while it is always paramount to cover our content, and analyze history, we also must come together as a community, and put our heads together for a purpose.  As a result, our class rule # 10 is to start a tradition.  So, it is with much pride that I write about our class tradition so far.   Well, this year some of our students came up with the idea to:

A. Make Hooded sweatshirts, and

B. Create a class logo based on Cool Whip.

C. Fill the back with the most hilarious moments from our time together.
