Daniel+Simmons

= = = Biography = ==Welcome! My name is Daniel Simmons and I am the high school social studies teacher at The Governor Morehead School for the Blind. I am the only high school social studies teacher, so I am the high school social studies department! Even though I teach all high school social studies classes, currently I am teaching civics and psychology. At this time, my students and I are developing a private wiki - a collection of webpages where users can access class materials, blog comments and questions, anytime, anywhere. If you are interested in seeing this wiki, please click on the following link: [|http://historyrocksyou.pbwiki.com] You will have to request access.==

==In November 2007, I had the opportunity to be part of an American education delegation to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This trip was organized by the presitigious Institute of International Education, and sponsored by Saudi Arabia's national oil company, Saudi Aramco. The 25 delegates were chosen from over 200 candidates from all over the United States. We were briefed in Houston, Texas for two days and then departed for the KSA. While I was there, I communicated with my students through Skype, and a blog. If you would like to see pictures and videos, please click on the following link: [|www.historyrocksyou.blogspot.com]==
