Welcome to my classroom! My name is Matt Shomaker and I've been an educator for eight years. I teach 7th grade American History at a medium-sized rural school outside of a major Midwestern city. I'm passionate about my subject area and learning new ways to teach history in order to raise up enlightened, active, tech-savvy historians.
