Can you remember?<BR/>Thanks, Will<BR/><BR/><BR/>Will I do remember. She made learning history fun.It was not just reading and remembering dates. She told stories. She gave us awesome projects. Once, we had to write a journal in the perspective of a slave. We had to make a cover, and make it look old. I burned a part of mine, spilled tea on it to yellow it. She made it very possible to get through my next history class in 8th grade had I not had her I would have ended up hating history. I wound up with a teacher who made us read the chapter we were on through then on Friday was the test all year long.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
