Welcome to our 8th-grade social studies classroom in Pittsburgh, PA! My students are curious, creative, and eager to bring history to life. From exploring the 13 colonies to studying the influence of African and Native American cultures, they strive to understand the complexities of the past. They thrive on collaboration, hands-on projects, and using technology to enhance their learning. My goal is to provide an engaging environment where students can think critically and express themselves creatively. Your support will give them the tools to create immersive digital projects that deepen their understanding of history and help them develop valuable media skills. Thank you for considering our classroom!
