A New Adventure

To our Citrus County Social Studies teachers:



Egads and gadzooks~! A blog! This is an attempt to enhance communications between the Social Studies teachers in our district. There are a lot of changes coming to our discipline, and we need to work together to turn the changes into positive results for our profession, our students - and ourselves. This blog is designed to encourage comments and conversations between our Social Studies teachers. What an opportunity to 'get together' and share. We have the best Social Studies crew in the state, but I firmly believe that learning from others needs to be a continual process.



Topics for the blog are unlimited, and could include comments/questions about the upcoming standards, technology in our classrooms, information from the District, methods of meeting state mandates, results of an activity in the classroom - the list can be quite extensive and, to be perfectly honest with you - I have no real idea as to the final direction this will take us, or all we can do with it.



At this point, I can only look to what Robert Frost wrote:



I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence

Two roads diverged in a wood

And I took the one less traveled by

And that has made all the difference.
