Myname is Amanda Lifschultz and I am the American History teacher for 7 East. This year we will be studying American History from the period of Exploration through the Civil War. Throughout the year, I will send out email blasts addressing upcoming projects or units of study. Our first unit is 'Budding Historian'. During this unit, we will establish a foundation of skills to bring to our study of American History. The culminating project for the Budding Historian unit will be the Photography Autobiography project. The purpose of this project is to provide students with an opportunity to better understand what makes a person, place, event, or experience significant. We will be making connections between ourunderstandingof what makes an event significant in their lives and ourunderstanding of whatmakes an event significant in our study of AmericanHistory. We will developcriteria for determining which events are significantevents. The project also provides students with the opportunity to think about how historians decide what to include in our textbook and what to exclude from the textbook? We will examine the idea that what historians decide to include in the telling of history amplifies the importance of those events and diminishes the value of the events that were left out or omitted. Once the project has been completed, students will participate in a gallery viewing of the Photography Autobiographies. At that point, they will be expected to record an evaluation of the source material and draw conclusions with regards to the culture of the class. I am looking forward to getting to know your child!

http://sites.agu.org/careers/files/2012/01/Mid-career-change-article.pdf leave your current situation in a professional manner... Don’t burn bridges. Even if you want to change course because you are in a toxic situation and your boss is a lunatic, remember that the world of science is tiny and the world of your specialization is at the nanoscale. One of your objectives should be to leave your current situation (as best as possible) in a professional manner with a glowing letter of recommendation and a reference who will only say good things about you. Even if this is not possible, you should seek to make your change in a very cordial way, remembering that your reputation is your most important asset and that every move you make can possibly be perceived incorrectly. So be a Lady or a Gentleman when you make your change and stay professional. Your next change – in another 10-15 years or less – may put you face-to-face with your current supervisor and colleagues and there’s no sense burning bridges.
