Activating the Primary Social Studies Classroom: A Standards-Based Sourcebook for K-4 by Leslie Marlow, Duane Inman (Paperback, 2005)

In this educational era of increasing emphasis on student performance, there is a definite shortage of high-interest resources through which teachers can effectively address the ten standards identified by the National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS). Teachers need ideas for simple, low-cost activities, which they can do with their students to allow social studies learning to occur in an interesting, engaging manner. Now there is a resource designed with hands-on learning opportunities that are aligned with the NCSS standards. Included in this sourcebook are: * Assessment rubrics * Student and professional technology resources * Descriptions of various instructional models * An appendix containing background information to facilitate the users' understanding of certain activities * A glossary of specialty terms and concepts used Each activity, which addresses multiple standards, can be used for enrichment or to accommodate students with various needs. The activities feature: * Recommendations for interesting children's literature * Links to web sites related to each activity * Suggestions for adaptations or extensions to effectively meet the needs of specific students Will be of interest to pre-service and in-service elementary teachers who want to enliven their classrooms with student involvement and interest in social studies topics.
