World History teachers: I spend an unreasonable amount of time thinking about history curriculum, so I’m opening some informal planning office hours in the comments today. ☕

Tell me:

• The course or grade you teach
• The first topic or unit you’re starting with

I’ll reply with an activity idea, lesson-sequencing suggestion, or practical planning shortcut tailored to what you’re teaching.

On-level, honors, AP World, middle school, and homeschool teachers are all welcome. And “I start tomorrow and I’m still figuring it out” is a completely acceptable answer. 😅

What are you teaching first?
