Multi-Media Post

     I have Mr. Minnocci's US History II third period honors class. He is the spring track and field coach at Wood-ridge high school, and he has been working in the education field for about more than two decades. He is an excellent role model and a person you can go to when needed. He has a sense of humor that makes him approachable and welcoming to the class. As the year goes on, I expect to grow mentally in that class. Learning new things and having discussions on everyday events and the past ones as well.

     The grading policy he goes by is 40% test and quizzes, 10% for homework, 40% projects and based assignments and 10%  for participation. There are several interesting aspects of his class. His everyday riddles make us think outside the box, and laugh about some of the answers provided by my fellow classmates. His discussions on the topics we are learning are powerfully strong, since the whole class participates. The video clips showed during this chapter about the Cold War and Korea greatly helped the understanding of the chapter by focusing on the main points.


      Technology in the class is used in different ways. It is used in watching video clips on the topic we are learning and or look a power point noting the important parts of each and every section we go over. We also use technology by using our online textbook and plugging in our user name and password. This years class is a challenge, but if hard work is put in, it will be worth it. With everything learn in the US history II course, someday, somehow is gonna help you in the near future.
