Social Studies

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

SOCIAL STUDIES CLASSES

In this course we will explore how environment influenced the way people lived, interacted and developed throughout the Americas. I will be using a mixture of materials developed by my TOSA and I, district resources and supplementary resources.

I believe very strongly in incorporating content and language concepts, study skills, cooperative, interactive learning activities and reading strategies into my daily lesson plans. I also believe that it's just as important to teach students how to learn, as it is to teach the academic content of the course. It is my goal to make the course an interesting and enlightening experience for all my students.
