Product Description
This user-friendly handbook for history teachers contains 40 classroom activities, emphasizes student-centered learning, and encourages teachers to approach their teaching in an imaginative and innovative way.

Good Stuff
There are several good ideas in this book. I teach U.S. and World History, and there are resources that can be used for both. Furthermore, many of the lesson ideas can be used for other topics.

Average
This book is OK, and not quite what I expected it to be. Does have some pretty good ideas, but I wouldn't buy it again.
