Week of Feb 16 and 22: Students are studying Industrialization by participating in an assembly line while learning about the advantages and disadvantages of industrialization.

I would like to introduce myself. My name is Alisha Eisenstock. This will be my seventh year teaching in Paradise Valley Unified School District. I grew up and went to high school in the Philadelphia area and then attended the University of Arizona where I earned a degree in Political Science. I am passionate about government and history. I have worked on several election campaigns for State Senate and US House of Representatives. Recently this summer, I was active at the Capital fighting for the cause of education. I have recently completed my Master's Degree in Education Leadership and Principalship.

My motto is to make learning relevant to the world today. We have an enormous amount of history to cover this year. To this regard, your children will have certain expectations in my classroom.

Students are expected to come to school prepared for class. I expect students to have a single subject notebook and pencils. Colored pencils, markers, scissors and a ruler are suggested, but not required. Students will be completing art type projects where these supplies will be very useful.

Students are expected to watch the local and national news. We will be reading and discussing current events in class on a regular basis, as they pertain to class topics.

Students will have to complete a warm up question daily when they come into class. When a student is absent, it is up to the individual student to get the missed warm up question and answer.

VVMS follows the ABC Discipline policy. This policy will be followed and strictly enforced in my classroom. Please consult your childís school planner for information on this policy.

Your childís education is a two way street. You may email me at aeisenstock@pvschools.net or call the schoolís main number 602-449-5300. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. In addition, I must be able to contact you regarding your childís academic progress or behavior. Please fill out the information on the attached sheet.

My goal this year is to have your student successfully complete American History and be in tune with the link between current and past history.
