Through research, art, writing, and hands-on building, students investigated the lives of the people enslaved there. Rather than writing traditional reports, students designed exhibits: research panels, artifacts, model...

Send us Fan Mail Why do we teach? It’s a question educators are asked all the time, often with a mix of curiosity, disbelief, and admiration. In this solo reflection and community episode, I explore the answer that often hides just beneath the surface: hope. Teaching is one of the greatest acts of hope we can offer the world.

John shares primary sources teachers can bring into t...
