From the Back Cover:
Praise for June Chapin’s Approach
“[My] students love the sample lesson and unit plans. I like to use the small work group exercises, as it actively involves them in discussing the chapter material.”
–Jacquelyn A. Lewis-Harris, University of Missouri—St. Louis
Elementary Social Studies: A Practical Guide clearly and accessibly presents the essential content and methods for teaching social studies in the K—8 classroom. This seventh edition keeps pace with today’s changing educational environment, reflecting recent trends in technology and exploring English language learners’ issues and the needs of diverse students. The text addresses the field’s increasing focus on teaching the disciplines of history, geography, economics, and civic education, while also giving thorough coverage of teaching to national (NCSS) and state standards. Using vignettes, classroom samples, and small group activities, this book prepares students to provide the best social studies instruction in their own classrooms.
