In this course we will be discussing the history of Alcatraz Island. We will discuss the military history of Alcatraz Island. We will discuss what life was like for both prisoners and civilians on the island during the time it was used as a prison. And no discussion of Alcatraz Island is complete without talking about the infamous prison break. I will use slides, photos, storytelling and a handout.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have a degree in history from Columbia College and a Juris Doctorate from Ave Maria School of Law. I will be teaching history, civics, government and law related classes. I am a homeschooling mom and I love sharing my passion for these topics. I want students to realize these subjects are not just in the past, and boring book learning type subjects but are living topics that are interesting and exciting.Reviews
