Activities for Elementary School Social Studies
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: Dynneson et al., Designing Effective Instruction for Secondary Social Studies, Third Edition (ISBN 9781577665199); Farris, Elementary and Middle School Social Studies: An Interdisciplinary, Multicultural Approach, Seventh Edition (ISBN 9781478622802); and Stockard, Handbook for Teaching Secondary School Social Studies (ISBN 9781577664543).
