Great History Blogs for Teachers!

After several years of fighting Twitter as a means of connecting with others, I joined in November 2013.  I knew I would only use Twitter for professional purposes and started to dabble in a little bit through last year.  It wasn't until the summer of 2014 when I really had time to figure out the value of hashtags that I started to create a collection of them.  Connecting with others from around the globe began happening quickly and I was really "getting it!"

During this deeper exploration of Twitter over the summer I saw a history teacher who was sharing his blogs.   He had four sites for high school teachers on the topics of Economics, US Government, World History, and US History.  I shared the US History blog with the eighth grade teachers in my school district as a resource they might find useful.

These are the blogs - and I would highly encourage teachers to check them out regularly and to follow @kenhalla on Twitter!  He updates these blogs often.  It is a history teacher's gold mind!
