Social Studies Resources

Hi All!  Thank you for an amazing week at PVES!  I am soooo impressed with all that you have done to bring our new F & P books, LL and Heggerty to life.  Your students were so engaged because of the level of questioning that was happening.  

This week on the blog, I wanted to dig a bit into resources that can help support you in teaching your new Social Studies Standards.  If you have not taken the time to dig into your grade level's standard,  you can click HERE to check them out.  *Be sure to click slide 2 and head into the unpacking.  It is super helpful in explaining the standard!

Resources to help support your Social Studies lessons!
1. This guy isn't just for science!  There is a section dedicated to history!  You will find games, videos & biographies!  
2. Be sure to create a FREE account at the Smithsonian Learning Lab!  There is sooooo much here for us to use and the cool thing is your can search for topics, create a resource with those topics and share them out with your class! 
3. Home School POP is a great YouTube channel that has tons of social studies videos that you can incorporate into your lessons. 

4. Pebble Go! This is a fantastic site with lots of kid friendly resources! 
5. NearPOD! You can build your own interactive lessons, search resources or use their pre-made lessons!  U can even search by grade level! 
Here is a fantastic blogpost by We Are Teachers that had 55+ more sites for you to visit and search for great resources for you classroom! 
Know that Susie is searching for library books to support your social studies and science standards & the K-3 coaches will be working on resources to be posted on the curriculum pages.  

*Be sure to reach out if you need help!
