We are a diverse student body located in a small, rural town. Many of our students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch and come from economically challenged households. Our school has a large ELL population from Somalia, Mexico, and other countries.
My social studies classroom hosts unique groups of kids each hour of the day who are excited to learn about history!
With so many students at different stages in their learning, I strive to create an engaging and productive class.
Social studies allows for a wide variety of teaching opportunities. We use primary sources to develop knowledge, skills, and analytical abilities that engage us in asking questions, thinking critically, making intelligent inferences, and developing reasoned explanations. Primary sources help us interpret events and issues in the past and present so we make connections to the present and use this information to predict what might happen in the future!
We are building valuable skills and having fun doing it!
My Project
We want to recognize positive behaviors in our middle school with activities that are fun and get kids up and moving! Assemblies are a great way for us to reward positive choices and have fun!
We would like to create relay games during assemblies to engage students in multiple relay tasks that require teamwork.
Indoor scooters, plastic bats and indoor velcro dart boards with extra sticky balls all help to create activities that are fun, active and inclusive for all students. We hope to create new games using the same equipment to keep assemblies unique and fun! Storage bins will help us keep materials organized for multiple assemblies and other activities.
