Teacher expertise and credentials
I have always loved history. Over the years both academically and personally I have read biography (and autobiography) as a way to 'get to know' great people. It has been a great way to learn personal life lessons. Most years I require a paper in my social studies classes dealing with biography hoping to pass that same passion to my students. The biographic studies I offer will help me pass the love for biography along to another community of students. And I just finished one on Babe Ruth.
