Honors U.S. History Teacher
Haines City High School
Social Studies, US History

I am currently in my 19th year of teaching. I've taught for 13 years at the middle school level where I specialized in gifted education. I taught US History, Civics, World Cultures, Sciences, and working with ELL students.  I moved to high school 6 years ago, and couldn't be happier.  At this level, I've taught US History (including Honors), AP US History, and World History.

How has our view of Thomas Jefferson changed over time?

<p>Thomas Jefferson is remembered for his contributions to the ideals of natural rights and democratic principles.  Yet, as a slave owner,  Jefferson personally lived in contradiction of those  principles. In this Learning Lab you'll explore how Thomas Jefferson is viewed at different times in history through portraiture. Using evidence from his portraits you'll answer the question, "How has our view of Thomas Jefferson changed over time."</p>
