The Uses of Geography
Certified as a Social Studies Teacher in my state, I have taught Social Studies (including World Geography) for over 18 years, primarily at the Middle School level. My classes have had lots of fun and engagement with World Geography, delving into the wonders of 'oh so slightly' familiar cultures, as well as cultures that are dramatically different from the West. Students sparkle when engaging in special projects, conversations, Kahoot Challenges, interactive games and other teaching practices designed to help our students enjoy becoming a master of their own learning. Master's Degree (Public Policy), Bachelor's Degree (History), Teaching Certificate (State of Maryland) : Social Studies, History, Middle School Language Arts, 30 credits beyond Master's Degree.

빈도: Available upon request세부 내용: Students receive a report at the end of each unit showing attendance, completed projects and teacher comments. Students complete a Kahoot concept game at the end of each unit which serve two goals: review and formative assessment. Grades can be provided upon request. I base grades on completed weekly projects (one per week), Kahoot game quiz (may be completed on paper).
Students are provided with handouts that include major concepts and vocabulary. This is a pre-teaching tool to help students build their familiarity with class topic before, during and after class. Online practice with interactive maps.
There are no prerequisites for the class. Students acquire an increasing range of skills and concepts. Instruction follows a 'spiralling' curriculum plan, where the teacher reviews concepts as they appear and reappear in later meetings.
Each 4 week unit will include: * a blank map provided in homework. Students may print the map to complete homework, or they may embed it in a visual app that allows the addition of labels and symbols (Printer not cooperating? Students may draw a rough version of the map by hand, then complete the labeling as directed in homework) ; * a list of GeoBee terms reflecting unit vocabulary and concepts; * a menu of homework projects each week, posted in the classroom; * a Kahoot game to review main vocabulary and concepts of the unit. Optional: For Kahoot games (week 4 of each unit), students may use two screens. With a PC, students can use two tabs (split screen with second screen signed on as answer device). Alternatively, students can use their normal screen for OS classes, plus another smart device like a phone or tablet for the answer device. If the second screen is not available, students can still play our Kahoot game, keeping track with a simple paper/pencil method.
Homework assignments are provided and encouraged but are not required for participation. For source material, students may access one or more of the following sites. These sites offer useful resources and give our students an opportunity to practice map skills, gather research information and extend their learning. For on-line best practice, students should use the link to a resource provided in our classroom and benefit from on-line supervision.
