Make vocabulary instruction engaging with games. Students matched a definition card with a picture card. When we reviewed the definitions, I placed them up with the word wall terms.

socialstudies+ is hitting the road with Jodi Denton! Our first lesson - a reading challenge on the Growth and Expansion of the West was a huge hit!

Analyzing images, categorizing and then recategori

Analyzing images, categorizing and then recategorizing, are all excellent techniques for building background knowledge with images and excerpts prior to reading.

Manipulatives can demonstrate complex concepts like the 3 branches of government and checks and balances.

And this is why I love ❤️ manipulatives (scroll through all of the images).
1. Practice skills like sequencing. 2. Show cause and effect with categories.
3. Evaluate the impact of different events with a spectrum.
4. Engagement and HOTS!

Do you have any manipulatives you use?

Build engagement with question dice. Students read

Build engagement with question dice. Students read a passage shake shake, shake the box and the dice helped the students create a question about their reading. You can find the template for free in my store under dice games.

socialstudies+ requires rigorous thinking, not jus

socialstudies+ requires rigorous thinking, not just rote memorization. Students actively participate in content conversations, then apply their learning. With this resource, students are analyzing artifacts to determine which Civil War battle is represented in a history lab.

Reasons I love lap books. 1. they are student focused and increase student engagement. 2. they help organize information in a unit. 3. students can refer back to their lap books for reference during review. 4. They’re just fun!

Building Engagement includes novelty. How can you

Building Engagement includes novelty. How can you take an ordinary lesson and add a twist? I love adding manipulatives! In this lesson, students create a model of one of the primary source excerpts from the Preamble. Once their model is made, they write about it! Would you use pipe cleaners to create models in your classroom?

Vocabulary instruction prior to content instructio

Vocabulary instruction prior to content instruction is vital!!!! Do you need to learn more? I have an online PD session on my website.

manipulatives + reading strategy = engagement

https://www.socialstudiessuccess.com/2025/05/visual-summary-reading-strategy.html

Are you looking for a different way to engage stud

Are you looking for a different way to engage students during reading? Try a visual summary. Start off by finding pictures that represent the content that matches the reading. Begin a lesson by passing out the images and having your students analyze and annotate with bullet notes of what they see in each image. Then hand out the reading. As students read, they will need to find the image that best describes each paragraph. As they continue reading, they will put the images in order. Once they have finished reading and putting all of the images in order take away the reading and have them discuss a summary based solely on the images you can then have them write or take notes. Let me know what you think of this reading strategy.
