Social Studies - Elementary - 0 views

  •  
    This website is very helpful for social studies lessons. There are many mini lessons to choose from for every grade and lessons on geography, the government and american history. I enjot hand on activities in lessons and a few of the lessons suggestions include making a play doh map of your state or making maps. There are also instructional lessons like how to read a map or lessons on current events. This would be very helpful for an older grade level and to get more in depth on what is going on today.

    This site provides several sources for teaching middle school social studies. I chose it because it included project ideas, quizzes, maps, and games all pertaining to social studies. Teachers can benefit from this because it covers so many areas.

    This is a Social Studies site. I chose this site because of its lesson on Geography that so many students including myself lack. I was tested on the 50 states in high school, but thats it. Many Americans could most likely not find Florida or California if you gave them a map. Geography is an important education tool that seems to be losing its ground in the education system today.

    This site not only provides lesson plans but also other things like classroom maps that may be useful. I like that this site is free and the submissions are by other teachers. This site would be helpful when looking for more options for lesson plans and other classroom related stuff.

    Google Earth is a great resource to have in the classroom. It is the new map. It is interactive and would be very useful for students doing projects, researching different landmarks as well as different countries. It gives a glimpse at what the landscape looks like and can be zoomed in or out. However, it needs to be downloaded to be accessed.

    I chose this site because I love maps and this site uses interactive maps to show U.S History. I would use this site to allow students to be creative for a project dealing with the history of the United States. There is a large array of information about economic statistics, migration patterns, etc.

      This website is a good place to get different social studies activities to use in the classroom and it is also is a good place to use as a refrence when learning about different states and countries. I picked this website because I like how there are many different activities that we can use in the class. I also like that there are descriptions of the states. Click on Iowa and see what it says!

    This website is awesome, especially for teaching the states and capitals. There are so many fun games for students to play, so they won't get bored with the traditional rehearsal of flashcards.

    Students can click on a state and it will take them to a link with many facts and details for students. This would be great in my classroom to help students learn fun facts and location for states.

    When working on a geography unit, this site would be very helpful. Students can practice their state recognition easily as well as learn about the states. This site could also be utilized for current event research. If a social studies teacher wanted to give a list of current event resources, this would be a great resource.
  •  
    This website is absolutely full of things for kids to do. This website doesn't have just games, they also have places where you can learn things about the different flags or about the different states in America or many other things. There is a section that has current events that are going on in the world. I think this is a great website for students to spend time on.
  •  
    This allows students to play different games, look at current events and get to low Social Studies a little better. Good website for students K-5
  •  
    I chose this website, because social students has always been a tough topic for me, so this is a good way to learn new information as well as fun facts. This website would be good to use for indivial projects on different states, and also to learn about them, and where they are on the map too.
