"This unique contribution is both a wonderful source of teaching
ideas and a reminder that authentic learning involves engaging
experiences that encourage inquiry." -Dan Thompson, Assistant
Professor of Education Penn State University "Educators are always
looking for interesting activities that challenge students to think
beyond the ordinary. The authors have done a great job of compiling
a variety of activities for different subject areas." -India
Meissel, Social Studies and English Teacher Lakeland High School,
Suffolk, VA Encourage critical thinking while teaching meaning
through learning experiences! Learning in secondary school
classrooms involves much more than students reciting the "right"
answers on high-stakes tests. This activity-packed book encourages
educators to move beyond traditional models of teaching and
learning and provides them with the tools for getting started. 100
Experiential Learning Activities for Social Studies, Literature,
and the Arts, Grades 5-12 focuses on using active learning to
engage students in critical thinking and reflection about complex
content knowledge in the humanities and the arts. Through
easy-to-use matrices, the authors link lessons investigating
history, economics, literature, music, and visual arts to McREL,
NCTE, and NCSS standards. The 100 activities address significant
social issues, including social justice, culture, language, and
diversity. Teachers can emphasize comprehension, encourage creative
thinking, and promote transfer across disciplines to help students:
Explore primary sources to uncover practical and relevant
information Construct careful arguments to integrate new learning
with prior knowledge Question deeply held assumptions to arrive at
authentic understandings Approach new ideas with confidence Take
your students through meaningful learning experiences and make
knowledge come alive!
