Product Description:
/*0205447244, Chapin, Elementary Social Studies. 6e*/Elementary Social Studies: A Practical Guide, 6/e, focuses on topics that are basic and specific, yet critical to the teaching of social studies in the elementary and middle school years. With a wealth of activities and sample units, this concise book offers extensive examples of classroom application. The sixth edition reflects the recent trends in technology, teaching English Language Learners, diversity and the greater focus on teaching history, geography, economics, and civic education. Additionally, the substantially revised and updated chapter on assessment (chapter 4) addresses the latest on performance-based assessment, as well as the impact and role of federal and state testing.

This book is excellent for college students preparing to teach Elementary Ed in any school, public or private. I highly recommend it! It's a book you won't want to sell after you use it, because it's a great book to refer back to once you begin your teaching career.

I liked this book, it gave many practical examples for teachers to use in the classroom. Social studies is generally a factual subject which can be very boring. This books helps to give you creative ideas for social studies content.

I am not too pleased with the usefulness of this text for teaching Social Studies Methods. The book gives many examples of teaching methods for social studies but the book lacks depth or how-to-ness. Okay for a general overview but not much substance. It lacks an overall philosophy or guiding theory. Students reading this text are left to sort through a variety of methods and come to their own decisions about what will work and not work in the classroom. I would rather have seen more of what the current research suggest about teaching than leaving all of the sence making to the reader.
