"Few will have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total; of all those acts will be written the history of this generation." -Robert F. Kennedy
My philosophy exemplifies the importance of developing the student as a whole. Not only will students come to understand the importance of historical content, they will also know the importance of respecting other cultures and each other. With this positive classroom environment, students will be given the choice to discover, to make good decisions, and to learn from each other. As a class, we will go through this educational journey together by developing 21st century skills, project based learning skills, and community based learning skills. By the end of the students' formal education, they should be well educated citizens ready to take on the world.
