Greatest upset in sports history. I have 30 kids in my class at the moment. 25 had no clue what the "Miracle on Ice" was. No wonder America is headed down the toilet!

I immediately pulled out the movie and started their education on the subject! Luckily we are working on a study guide today.

guessing our history teachers missed the part about 9/11. What about their parents?! I have sat all three of my boys down and made them watch 102 Minutes that changed America. I want them to understand what that day was all about.

I sat em down and we talked all about it. Then we watched the film. I did the same thing with the OKC bombing. Over spring break, we're taking them to the Memorial museum. They were too young to go through it the last time we went to the Memorial.

They were too young to go through it the last time we went to the Memorial. that's awesome. they asked me to drive the bus for some of our AP government kids to go to the capitol and the memorial in a couple of weeks. have never been to the memorial.
