Description

Integrate adventure stories, folktales, and other quality fiction into the social studies curriculum with this Oryx bestseller. The authors describe each publication along with discussions, projects, reports, and other activities that will perfectly complement them. The learning objectives focus first on the family, then communities, cultures, and the American nation as a whole. Student objectives and activities are clearly outlined, with special attention paid to preparation and procedure. Suggestions for extending the lessons as well as follow-up activities are also covered. - from Amzon
