UTES Social Studies

What are your thoughts? Is the value of historical simulations worth the extra effort it takes to plan, inform, prepare, adapt, and navigate the needs of students, parents, and school?
When and how do you use simulations, and how do you ensure that they are done with the care and sensitivity that they require?

It’s summertime and, as all teachers know, it’s PD time as well. I am excited and honored to get to return to Tyler ISD and share more ways that social studies can be integrated into language arts. I am updating my presentation to include the cool technology and performance strategies we piloted this year at UTES. As always, the kids are the stars and I’m the director of their learning.
