Mr. DiMartino’s Classroom Edit display name

I am looking forward to seeing my students in-person for the first time in more than a year! This year will also be the first time for me teaching this exciting Advanced Placement course in U.S. History. Starting with a new series of textbooks to support student learning seems the best way to go. When students return to the classroom, my hope is that these books will increase their engagement. AP U.S. History is a deep dive into what brought us to this point in our lives as Americans. It also provides an opportunity for students to engage in civil discourse about pivotal events, both past and present. By exploring where America came from, students will gain greater insight into why the country is where it is today. These textbooks will add a fresh perspective for students as they return to the classroom. My hope is that they will become a focal point for group discussion, something that I have not been able to accomplish in my classes during distance learning over the past 16 months. The addition of disinfecting wipes will help protect both students and the books!
