Teaching Middle Level Social Studies: A Practical Guide for 4th-8th Grade (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781648026997)

This textbook is a comprehensive and practical guide to teaching middle level social studies. Middle level students are just as capable as high school students at engaging in hands-on, progressive, reflective activities, yet pedagogical strategies designed specifically for the middle grades are often overlooked in teacher education programs. This text provides both progressive and traditional teaching methods and strategies proven effective in the middle level classroom. The content of this book consists of conventional chapters such as "What is Social Studies?" and "Unit and Curriculum Planning," as well as unique chapters such as "The Middle Level Learner", "Best Practices for Teaching State History" and "Integrating the "Core" Subjects in Middle Level Social Studies".
