Atlantic World Teaching Team Onboarding and Planning
Preston Tucker
Grace Allen and Enver Casimir joined the Atlantic World teaching team this year, each bringing broad experience in teaching history to advanced, curious students. Preston Tucker introduced them to the existing Atlantic World curriculum, and we discussed some modifications for the coming year (with a special emphasis on incorporating more BIPOC historians and perspectives). We reviewed course learning goals in detail and mapped out a day-by-day plan for the first semester. Careful attention was given to the assessment of our shared learning goals. Thanks to this time together, the team is ready to deliver a concerted, cohesive curriculum to the 10th-grade class. We will build on this tight collaboration with weekly meetings through the school year.
