No More Worksheets: Building Social Studies Skills in the Secondary Classroom

Although very content-driven, our social studies TEKS require that students master specific higher-order thinking skills, such as analyzing information, evaluating sources, and exploring visuals. Students who are able to think critically, are better prepared to complete tasks and processing activities, and master state assessments. Come fill your teacher toolbox with scaffolded, interactive, and research-based strategies to help students apply critical thinking skills to organize and use information in your Social Studies classroom.
