OK. One reported covid case in the school system as a whole, but not in the group I have contact with.
Our program has a little more flexibility in the remote/inperson mix. I'm cautiously optimistic that we are meeting the needs of our students right now.
In Algebra II we're doing linear and exponential functions, really review work.
In US History I, we're finishing up the Puritans. I'm going to assign a video by an "apush" teacher(that's Advanced Placement, United States History), about the Puritans that's pretty lively.
The Puritan's get a bad rap, but they are responsible for New England's traditionally high literacy rate. For all the gloom and doom about American education, Massachusetts and other NE states tend to perform well.
US History II, we just finished woman's suffrage. I contrasted Carrie Chapman Catt's more incremental state by state strategy, and normalization of women's political activity, with Alice Paul's drive for a constitutional amendment, and her willingness to provoke violent reaction to get it. Her experience had been in England, where the suffrage movement was considerably more confrontational than the USA.
