      There are so many treasures within this site, but one I use frequently is the "Educators" section. Here, you will find all the information needed to make history come alive for your students. It is quite remarkable and well worth a visit!

    At the Minnesota Historical Society we've been collecting, preserving, and telling Minnesota stories for 150 years.

    This is a great site. Any of the programs the MNHS puts on are always great if you are looking for hands on education, too.

    This is a resource geared toward parents. It could be something given to parents hardcopy, suggested reading for parents via the internet, and/or used by the teacher. There are suggestions for books, magazines, activities, etc. as additional resources.

    I labeled this generically with the NCSS label as webquests will be available in every topic area you could want in Social Studies. It appears this has some useful tools for helping design your own webquests.

The Answer Sheet - What 'Superman' got wrong, point by point - 0 views

  • According to the Department of Education, the country will need 1.6 million new teachers in the next five years. Retention of talented teachers is one key. Good teaching is about making connections to students, about connecting what they learn to the world in which they live, and this only happens if teachers have history and roots in the communities where they teach
  • The film-makers betray a lack of understanding of how people actually learn, the active and engaged participation of students in the learning process. They ignore the social construction of knowledge, the difference between deep learning and rote memorization.
  • Waiting for Superman has ignored deep historical and systemic problems in education such as segregation, property-tax based funding formulas, centralized textbook production, lack of local autonomy and shared governance, de-professionalization, inadequate special education supports, differential discipline patterns, and the list goes on and on.

    Wendy thanks for this link on Facebook. I'm going to see it tonight! I look forward to debate on this topic in the weeks ahead.

    Here is another film you might rent/watch as part of learning about labor issues in the US.
  •  
    This looks like a really interesting film so I added it to my list of movies to get from NetFlix. Not very often do you see movies like this where females are the ones pushing to get unionized.
