Anticipate the Essay Question



If you were your professor, what essay questions would you ask about Chapter Twelve? Keep in mind that they might cover several areas at once! For example:

Your mentor teacher is a social studies teacher of the "old school"--he believes there is one correct way to teach social studies and that all this emphasis on reading and writing across the curriculum is diluting his students' learning. How can you (tactfully, of course!) inform him of your alternate point of view?
