Here are the students attending the first class of my U.S. History class in Varna, Bulgaria. They are from left to right Toni, Teodora, and Martina. They were very good students today during our first lesson.
This is what we discussed today. We talked about the First Americans and where they came from and how they got there. Then we discussed the major Native American tribes that were around at the time of Columbus' arrival. Yes I know this is not U.S. History but I thought it was important and when you are teaching like this, there is no curriculum guide hanging over you or test results threatening to bring your school down, so you can improvise. Besides I am designing the course as we go, who knows what we will talk about on Wednesday!
Hope your lessons continue to go well!
