I thought others might be looking for an easy-to-edit test to use as as-is or as a starting point. This document is in Microsoft Word (I saved it as Word 97 so older versions of Word should have no trouble opening it). We cover the Amendments, Preamble, brances of government, Senate, House of Representatives, Supreme Court, etc.

This is a sign I hang on my classroom door (I teach high school). I wanted to make it available to anybody who wants to use it. I am uploading as a DOCX file so you can edit it to fit your own style.

Teaching style

I do project-based learning mostly. I give instruction [generally walking students through the basics] and then give them time to complete projects.

Awards & shining teacher moments

MESA (Math Engineering Science Achievement) Educator of the Year Ukiah High School Distinguished Educator "Most Inspirational Teacher", 8th grade Social Studies

My own education history

I attended Mendocino Community College, Sonoma State University, Dominican University of California, and a variety of other colleges for additional credits. I have 3 degrees and I am credentialed to teach in 17 subjects (within Social Sciences and Business/Technology) in California. I was also credentialed in Tennessee, but after moving back to California I let those laps.

Additional biographical information

I have four children of my own and one adopted daughter. My children have had various physical disabilities, emotional disabilities, and some learning disabilities. These have required some long term independent study, some special learning plans, and one child being home schooled. It's been quite a journey.
