World History (Ms. Garvin)

Everyday 2nd period I have World History with Ms. Garvin. Though it is her first year teaching World History she is not a bad teacher. She went to Purdue University for a bachelors degree and now studies at Columbia University. Ms. Garvin maybe strict but I learned a lot from her. Her grading polices are 45% for projects, 45% for tests and, 10% for homework. 

When I first started that course I expected to learn about history starting from the being, but we started from the Renaissance and are going up to World War II. Though I was quite disappointed at first but I still really like what I am learning now. It may be better than learning about cavemen. Up to right now we have learned about the Renaissance all the way up to the Industrial Revolution. I am really looking forward to going to the Metropolitan Museum.  

In class, Ms. Garvin likes to use technology to teach us about what we are learning. Many of the times we work in groups to create to wiki-dots blog. There we post our projects or research on what we were assigned. We also made Prezi and Power Points for projects for review or a project grade.
