Regarding Learning in a Pandemic
During CCSD School Closures, there will be daily lessons available for both AP and HONORS World History students. As far as I know, you are not required to do the work nor are you going to be graded on it. My goal is to provide learning opportunities for those interested. However, my number one concern is the well being of both you and those around you. Please use logic and reasoning in this time of confusion. Stay safe humans.
AP: I have and will continue to email you all daily and uploading curriculum via shererhistory.com. I appreciate that I have heard from all of you.
Honors: All of our content will be under the HONORS tab; mostly the interacting with me is optional, but you know I would love to take your questions and learn from YOUR insight. The AP tests are still on, so my AP classes are unfortunately still required to learn and write essays. I will be providing optional assessments for you all in HONORS, but mostly I am creating an online self-paced learning structure for you. All tests, podcasts and blog posts are graded and are in Infinite Campus. Online work will be used for extra credit to improve 2nd semester grades.

HISTORY
There is no great and no small
To the Soul that maketh all:
And where it cometh, all things are;
And it cometh everywhere.
I am owner of the sphere,
Of the seven stars and the solar year,
Of Caesar's hand, and Plato's brain,
Of Lord Christ's heart, and Shakespeare's strain.
There is one mind common to all individual men. Every man is an inlet to the same and to all of the same. He that is once admitted to the right of reason is made a freeman of the whole estate. What Plato has thought, he may think; what a saint has felt, he may feel; what at any time has be-fallen any man, he can understand. Who hath access to this universal mind is a party to all that is or can be done, for this is the only and sovereign agent.
Of the works of this mind history is the record. Its genius is illustrated by the entire series of days. Man is explicable by nothing less than all his history.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
