US History/US Government Part IV 2007-2008
Materials
I created a textbook with elements from several sources. I used printed
textbooks, workbooks, cut out pictures from old textbooks, printed materials
from the Internet, as well as videos from the Captioned Media Program and the
library. I put the materials into a three ring binder with dividers for the
sections. If I wanted Eric to look at a video or an illustration in another
text, I would type up these instructions and imbed them into the text. (or use post it notes!)
