New to the education market, Social Studies: Innovative Approaches for Teachers focuses on strategies that support literacy and numeracy development in young students. With a focus on the value and flexibility of social studies as a medium for teaching, the text will help you examine social assumptions, norms, problems, and issues. With a view to the human aspect of Social Studies, the text highlights the aspects of the program that relate to people and their activities, challenges, choices, hardships, and successes.

A focus on teaching strategies provides you with age appropriate strategies for young Social Studies learners. It directs you about the use, development, evolution, instruction, and special supports needed for the classroom and gives you suggestions to use the community as a resource. Using a graphic framework for conceptualizing the elements of instruction, and their most effective interaction, Social Studies helps you understand the instructional options available to support learning. Extensive information about the assessment of social studies is provided in the closing chapters of this book and is referenced throughout the book in relation to learning strategies.
