Rendezvous Response

May 8, 2009

Hi Deb. I loved last night’s get together! Inspiring teachers! Thanks for putting it on!

 

The names of the primary source books I recommend for the group are:

 

Ordinary Americans: US History through the eyes of everyday people

Edited by Linda R. Monk

 

Opposing Viewpoints in American History: From Reconstruction to the Present

Edited by William Dudley

 

Also, if people join World Affairs Council of Oregon, they can borrow boxes full of artifacts on all sorts of social studies topics like the ones Bob Boyd is making locally. They’ll ship them from Portland for teachers to check out for about a month.

 

Thanks,

Amy
