About Me

I’m excited to welcome our 7th graders to a year of explorations in world history. Our studies will range over many regions and periods of time, with a focus on the Egyptians and Medieval Period. My own history includes nine years of teaching grades 7 & 8. I have a Bachelors Degree in Middle School Social Studies & Math, a Masters Degree in Educational Leadership, and a Specialists Degree in Educational Technology, all through MIZZOU. I love spending time with family & friends, reading, watching movies, playing with my two yorkies, Triton & Ariel, and my toy poodle, Jasmine.

Alexander the Great ~ Week 21

Sample Student Post:

I wanted to learn more about Alexander the Great than what was presented by the textbook. After what the textbook covered, I didn't quite understand what made Alexander so "great"! So, I've looked up some additional information about Alexander and have included it here:

Wikipedia Information on Alexander the Great

Alexander the Great on the Web

Alexander the Great of Macedon

More Detailed Information on Alexander

That is a LOT of information! Now state in your own words why you think history has labeled Alexander as "great".
