Personal Message

I am always happy to provide updates about student progress and/or answer questions about assignments.  The best way to contact me is through Talking Points or email.mlbaudhuin@seattleschools.org

I have been teaching at Chief Sealth since 2014, and I absolutely love teaching, working, and living in this community.  I moved to Seattle in 2014, originally from Wisconsin and then Pittsburgh.

My approach to teaching history is for students to do the work of historians through disciplinary literacy.  Students will work with sources and learn to analyze and evaluate them like historians to identify and then make reasoned judgements about different perspectives of past events.

All of my classes focus on the core skills of reading, writing and research. Students read difficult documents and practice skills to help understand and analyze them, work on developing argumentative writing skills, using and explaining evidence in writing, practice research and source evaluation skills.
