After following your blog this semester, I really liked how you connected to your students through real life situations. The Great Depression/Economy lesson really stuck out to me. I also liked how you were able to "marry" different subject areas within your units.
I agree with Rochelle - your student-centered approach undoubtedly serves you well. In addition, I learned that your goals for those students are not only about the learning of the stories, but the extrapolation of those skills into other contexts.
I really learned how to utilize math into the Great Depression social studies using student approach. The use of real life activities is a good skill that helps keep interest.
