While teaching 6th grade History I have an opportunity to teach leadership by using examples of the great leaders of our nation and the world from 1900 to the present time. During the lessons I encourage my students to form their own opinions about major events in the world, and to be able to defend their opinions. Students must be taught and encouraged to stand up for what they believe in - for they are the future leaders of our schools, and our country. This concept relates to "ubiquitous" - "everywhere at the same time." If students learn to defend what they believe in while studying world events in History, they will hopefully stand up for what they believe is right in situations in their own lives - in turn, making our school a better place.
