MR. ROBERTS' NEIGHBORHOOD
WELCOME!
I want to officially welcome you to my class. I look forward to working with each and everyone of you this semester. As a class, we'll examine the history of our great nation and hopefully each of us can learn something new each day.
You see, that's the most fantastic thing about history. It is such an interesting story and every person sees any given event from a different pair of eyes. There is always more to learn, and there is going to be something in the course of history that intrests everybody.
History is not just dates and names of a bunch of old dead guys. It is the formation of everything we have become today. Your very life is history. Sure you may not ever be in history books, but you are a piece of this nation, and therefore a piece of its history.
Through this course, I hope to relate the events to you and your current situation. Everything that occured either ties into you directly, or is similar to what you may be going through now.
With that, I welcome you to my class and look forward to a postivie experience with each of you.
