Teaching style

We search to create lessons that ignite student interest with compelling and comprehensible input that highlight cultural connections. We strive to hit multiple AP Themes in our lessons as well as backward plan so that assessment comes natural to the students at the end of the unit. All assessments are modeled from AP and AAPPL tasks.
