Activities for Elementary School Social Studies
USD 30.85
Revised edition of the invaluable guidebook for developing interest, meaning, and true understanding in the classroom! According to Piaget, all higher-order thinking skills have their bases in activities involving concrete manipulation and observation. The third edition of this highly regarded collection of social studies activities, now with new contributing author Mary Margaret Wogan, continues to be based on the premise that children learn best through experiences and activities learning by doing. It features new activities for each social studies category (geography, history, anthropology, sociology, economics, political science, and interdisciplinary). Three important additions to the key elements of the easy-to-follow activity format make it easier for instructors to meet standards-based curriculum requirements: - A detailed treatment of National Council of Social Studies standards addressed - Specific multiple intelligences addressed (This concept is reinforced by a new multiple intelligences section in the back of the book) - Useful Web site(s) for group/individual research (URLs for sites that will expand or enrich the learning experience for the activity) By engaging pupils in meaningful, worthwhile social studies activities, instructors can emphasize the processes of learning rather than the products, resulting in a richly rewarding experience for pupils and teacher alike. Titles of related interest from Waveland Press: Farris, Elementary and Middle School Social Studies: An Interdisciplinary, Multicultural Approach, Sixth Edition (ISBN 9781577667346); Stockard, Handbook for Teaching Secondary School Social Studies (ISBN 9781577664543); and Stockard, Methods and Resources for Elementary and Middle-School Social Studies (ISBN 9781577661849).

Practical Strategies for Teaching K-12 Social Studies in Inclusive Classrooms (International Social Studies Forum: the Series)
USD 45.99
A volume in International Social Studies Forum: The Series Series Editors Richard Diem, University of Texas at San Antonio and Jeff Passe, Towson University With the national push towards inclusion, more students with disabilities are being placed in general education settings. Furthermore, when placed, more students with disabilities are entering social studies classrooms than any other content area. Classroom teachers are being asked to "reach and teach" all students, often with little support. There are numerous texts on the teaching of social studies, an equal number on teaching students with disabilities. Blending best practice in social studies and special education instruction, this book provides both pre - and in-service educators simple, practical strategies that support the creation of engaging, relevant, and appropriate social studies opportunities for all students. Though the strategies presented are useful for all students, they are particularly beneficial for students with disabilities. From Universal Design for Learning, mnemonics, graphic organizers, and big ideas, to co-teaching, screen readers and the Virtual History Museum, this book offers hands-on, practical ideas general educators can use when teaching K-12 social studies in inclusive classrooms.
