hey welcome to Evans high school at Mary Clyde and go through a few of the courses I'll be teaching this year at Evans High School look forward to having a great year hopefully we'll have a normal year but either way we hit the ground running so a brief overview about me I've been at Evansburg 21 years I love teaching APUSH AP seminar in film class I've been coaching softball that whole time about to start coaching the girls flag football as well travel of being outdoors I love going to legs and some time out there fishing my two dogs Ali and Gracie and great Companions and my wife Tiffany my remind codes for the classes are up here you can see them and got those down and very easy to do I'll also be giving out Google Classroom codes as school starts I will wait to give those out because sometimes schedules are in and sometimes you get more information than you really need to have at this time in the school year the school supplies your child will need are blue and black pens three-piece binder and college-ruled paper every now and then we'll use pencils but I have a ton of those so no worries there any problems you may have you can contact me at Eric. Lightnin ccboe.net or my homepage which will also be available once school starts now the three courses that I teach a push what we doing a push is we look at United States history 1492 to the present we analyzed. we learn to think historically we learn to look at perspectives of the documents and try to come up with a real way people are approaching history at that time cuz you're going to have all different perspectives when you're looking at in historical event it's always try to look at it a broad range of viewpoints and we will spend a lot of time with right BBQ's will write short answer questions will write some some essays but overall it's a great course it's a lot of fun I'm ready to get back into it we did really well last year so I'm looking forward to another great year AP seminar is a collaborative course where your your child will be placed with several other students what they will do as they will what was real world problem and as are analyzing a real world problem still try to come up with solutions to those problems is easy to identify a problem they're all over the place the tough part is coming up with a real feasible solution and that's what these students are going to be doing throughout the year they will do that in group settings but they lost have an individual component in which they will find a topic that truly interest them and they'll die that topic and it will also evaluate the implications or the the side effects of their possible solution do in this course students really know if MercyMe sells intuitive they love and so it gives you a lot of flexibility and finally my US history and film course this is a fun horse and what we do with this course lot times is compatible with the US History course because we will watch movies Hollywood movies based on the events they were studying it so as we're looking at the Historical perspective in class in the US History course in the film course we're looking at the Hollywood perspective or sometimes things are embellished or sometime facts are misconstrued in a way to humor or drama or whatever in and we will look at that and so is a lot is a lot of fun getting in there and getting the commentary from from the students as you start realizing man that movie was way off base or that movie was really good and they did a great job at you know chronicling that event in history nonetheless all three are awesome classes I look forward to having your child this year and diving into history or real-world events of you guys have a great rest of your summer look forward to and also yeah
