Tell Me What To Do

Extra Credit Blog Post:

This is your chance to tell me what to do. What would you change about Civics this year? Was there an assignment that you really didn't like this year? What was something that you liked a lot and you think I should do it again next year. This is NOT MANDATORY! This is just an extra credit opportunity. I would have loved the chance to tell my teachers what to do when I was in school- it doesn't happen that often!!!!

  1. I love doing to product and powerpoint project where we made our own company. It was a lot of fun and a great way to remember if there is a question about something we did in civics. Projects are always a great way to learn and I think you should do that project every year.

  4. I wouldn't change anything about Civics this year.I liked almost every assignment we did. You should do the thing when we had our own business and got to make a product it was fun!!!

  5. There were no activities or anything that we have done, so do your thing girl ! I had fun when we made our own corporation and same with the project we are doing now. I LOVED the project we did when we had everything in the book to get us ready for the SOL as an review, it really helped . !

  6. I loved civics it was very fun. Especially with you as the teacher you made it easy to learn and made it fun. I think you could get them more time on computers like projects in class. They make it even easier to learn the information. Like the one we are doing now because its very fun and exciting to do. So more in class projects on the computer would be an awesome and easier way to learn.

  7. I so agree with Amber! It was my favorite thing of this whole school year! Try to get some of them to be more creative though. i know everyone is capable of it, but some just do it and don't get into it. Tommie, Morgan, and I loved being girly and having fun. We even made an icon/symbol for TML. I loved it!!! Thank you for giving us the opportunities to be creative and have fun. I still think you deserve teacher of the year!

  10. There is nothing you can change about your teaching and your personality! I think more projects on the computer would be a lot more funnier. You are the most awesome history teacher I have ever had in my whole life. Another thing is let us work in partners of three or four people to a group. I really enjoyed this year and my sixth grade year in your class. I am going to miss coming to your class on Monday morning after a long weekend!!!:)
