We are wrapping up a fantastic semester. 2012 ended quite nicely, and without a Mayan apocalypse (not too surprised, as the Mayans also failed to predict their own drought, migrations, and demise:). Here in World History AP, we celebrated our "last day on earth" by eating the one thing that will not be destroyed...Twinkies.
But in the meantime, these kids have worked hard to perfect their essay writing, and are answering the bell. They are also growing in their ability to analyze the "why?" of history.
Overall, we have had a great semester together, learning from one another, and learning lots of history. I am looking forward to another semester with these amazing kids.
