Our discussion of South Pacific is still staying with me!

It seems to be a good resource for the level that my students are at and is helping me to incorporate more primary sources for them.

I'm psyched to comb the library for good material!

I also used the activity where students consider which quotation best captures the motives behind U.S. foreign policy and then stand next to the quote in a spectrum-esque activity. Seeing where students congregated was really interesting. I also used the lecture and lesson materials around the topic of American Exceptionalism with my students and discussed it re: Putin's op-ed in the New York Times.
