http://tarasocialstudies.blogspot.com/2011/05/linda-brown-you-are-not-alone.html
Tuesday, May 3, 2011. Linda Brown, You Are Not Alone. While continuing to research and looking for books related to the Civil Rights Movement, I found the book Linda Brown, You Are Not Alone.

Saturday, April 16, 2011. This Day in History. How can you use this in the classroom? This also gives students a great opertunity to use computers and research their day! These were a few of the sites that I found that were really useful:. Tuesday, April 12, 2011. What are You Wearing? This is a great activity to teach students about location! It doesn't even require them to bring anything but themselves fully clothed. What you do is have the students look at all of the labels. Those Were the Days. The d...

Brandi's Blog: Those Were the Days.....
http://bran1188.blogspot.com/2011/04/those-were-days.html
Tuesday, April 12, 2011. Those Were the Days. The decades project that we were involved in a few weeks ago was not only a great learning experience for us, but it would also be a great learning experience for the students in your class! On things that you were learning or things that would fit better with the standards that you would be going. This in a way makes students an "expert" on their decade. This. A movie, a poster. Board or anything that they want to come up with to you. Getting. Social Studies...

Studying Socially: Decades Project
http://tarasocialstudies.blogspot.com/2011/04/decades-project.html
Tuesday, April 26, 2011. The Decades project was a fun, hands-on way of researching and presenting information about various decades within the United States. We had groups from the turn of the century, 1920's, and the 1940's through the 1970's. Everyone dressed up in costumes reflecting the dress of their period and created posters, slide shows, and brought artifacts that highlighted important information about their decade. It wasn't called the Roaring Twenties for nothing! Live, Love, Learn.
