The Olympics Doesn’t Really Excite Me

What Olympic sports do you enjoy watching the most?

Maybe I’ll watch gymnastics, but mostly, it’s background noise.

Throwback Thursday: American Experience (1988-Present)

A well-made documentary is a smart addition to any curriculum or out-of-the-classroom learning experience. It can add color and humanity to a historical event that can seem dry and distant.

American Experience has been on PBS‘s schedule since 1988. Each season, a series of documentary films are released. Each highlights a specific time or issue in American history and presents the viewer with the full story of the subject.

I don’t watch this program often. But when I do, I find myself both entertained and educated at the same time.

Do I recommend it? Yes.
