THOUGHTS OR QUOTES
I have found that connections can be our best friends, especially when learning about ourselves and our personal histories. These connections shape our writing about history. In today’s world, knowing how the history and perspectives of other people and cultures are similar and different from our own past helps us become writers who think like historians. A historian is someone who studies or writes about history.
