This short video includes numerous books/films to connect not only to Social Studies instruction, but to ELA, science, and even math. These important historical resources can facilitate powerful educational experiences for students of all ages. #SSMethods

@missfischer415 Miss Fischer! Thank you for your great ideas related to scenario-based learning and role playing in relation to Social Studies instruction! :) I think it could be so interesting to use role playing when discussing the three branches of government with young students. #SSMethods
Through the use of learning models and lecture alternatives like Bloom’s Spiral, project-based learning, gamification, and virtual field trips, seemingly complex Social Studies concepts are made relevant and interesting to students. Great ideas to remember! #SSMethods
It’s fantastic to see so many books about important historical figures and events displayed in this elementary library. When teachers and students have access to these high quality resources, authentic learning in Social Studies is more easily achieved. #SSMethods
Gardens Elementary’s library showcasing Social Studies mentor texts. Boosting accessibility to books for teachers and students! @PISD_LandIM#pisdsocialstudies
Spent the night with #SSMethods from the @EDDeptEtown at @EtownCollege's High Library to learn how K-12 educators can collaborate with archivists to bring history to life for their students! Can't wait to see the final products next week!
The concept of notice and wonder is a great teaching strategy that’s cross curricular and can be utilized in social studies with young learners. Thanks for highlighting @edutopia ! #SSMethods
