The best thing about teachers is that they give a damn. Year in and year out, they work to incorporate new pedagogical strategies into their classrooms and tailor their curriculum to their ever-changing group of students. This year, to make sure you start off right, we compiled a list of outstanding teacher-created assignments that fit with your beginning of the year curriculum.
