Lesson Planning

dajbelshaw — Wed, 04 Oct 2006 07:23:19 CDT

Like the student in the cartoon above, if I don't have backup copies of my stuff I tend to lose it. This makes for a rather frustrating experience when teaching the same thing again, having to make similar resources as last year.

My plan is this: put lesson plans as I make them and teach them on this wiki and link to the resources I use (created by myself and others) from historyshareforum.com. Hopefully this will lead to less planning next year! :-)
