Looking for a few new ideas for lesson plans?  Wondering how others used a thematic collection or personal narrative in their 102P and 103P classes?  You've come to the right place.  We could all use a little help every now and again.  On this site you will find a data base of lesson plans, ideas, and suggestions. Please feel free to read through them all.
