251 Years at the Tip of the Spear

For 251 years, Marines have met every fight with resolve, precision, and an ethos that never wavers. The first to fight and the last to yield. America sleeps well because Marines stand the watch.

Happy Birthday, Marines. Semper Fidelis.

(Narrated by @netflix @mosquitobowl Director Peter Berg)

“Read. Read, read! Read the classics of American literature that you’ve never opened. Read your country’s history. How can we profess to love our country and take no interest in its history? Read into the history of Greece and Rome. Read about the great turning points in the history of science and medicine and ideas.

Read for pleasure, to be sure. But take seriously—read closely—books that have stood the test of time. Study a masterpiece, take it apart, study its architecture, its vocabulary, and after a few years, go back and read it again.”

David McCullough, “The American Spirit: Who We Are and What We Stand For”

American Revolution lesson- jigsaw with a twist. Students each had a part of the lesson. They wrote the key points on the tables. Next, they used play-doh to depict the event. Some incorporating their key details into their depiction.

Excited for the battles of the American Revolution. Trying out something new. Check back tomorrow for the results.

🔍 It’s that time of year again—the Boston Massacre Crime Scene Investigation! 📜🕵️‍♂️ I paired our classroom "crime scene" with primary sources to challenge students to dig deep into the evidence. There is nothing better than watching students use critical thinking skills.
