For those stressed about your presentation...

Hi Guys! I have heard from a few of you that you were "so embarassed at how bad" you did in your presentation. As I said, DON'T WORRY! Here's an example of when someone REALLY bombs their presentation:

I don't mean to pick on the poor girl, but clearly you could have done worse! :)

Preamble videos...

Only a real Constitution Nerd collects "Preamble videos". :) Anyway, here are some clips that I enjoyed.

Of course the CLASSIC Preamble video -- Schoolhouse Rock.

This is from the 1960's "Star Trek" series. As always it is way overacted and corny, but that's why it is so cool. :)

Here's one from the old "Andy Griffith Show" [no relation]. See, you guys already know more than Barney!

I will be adding more videos as I find them!

Interesting Presidential Race Clips

It's interesting to watch one Presidental candidate saying something nice about the other -- especially when it's something that can cost him/her votes. It's kind of refreshing.

Welcome to 8th Grade History!

Welcome!

My name is Robert Griffith. I am new to Terrace Middle School this year as I am taking over the 8th Grade History class that Mr. Laven taught for many years. I am excited about being back in the classroom and about being able to teach history again. I am very grateful for this opportunity.

I think it will be an exciting year for me, and I hope it will be an enjoyable year for you as well.

Good luck!

Mr. Griffith
