"I caught an awful cold and had to take an unexpected sick day. I was up making lesson plans at 3AM for my M/M SDC class and found your resources. This Athens and Sparta reads were great to keep my students on track for finding information while I was out sick. Now we can move on to comparing and contrasting and making the brochure! Thank you! :)"
