Elementary School Social Studies & History Graphic Organizers (by date, oldest first)

I don’t know about you, but I love having options! Because of that, I have worked to provide different leveled newspaper templates. These could easily be combined into a multipage newsletter booklet if you so choose, or it could remain as a single page assignment. I also tried to make it so that you could have a “front page” and a content page if you printed front and back. Whichever level your students are in, I think that there is a little something in here for everyone!

Includes:

• 9 Newspaper Outlines (with one page of lined paper)
• 1 page of newspaper jargon to inspire better word choice
• Tidbits and advice!

Use this simple EQ and summary worksheet for students to summarize learning from a text, socratic seminar, digital media, lecture etc.

Cette tâche de recherche rapide et simple amènera vos élèves à explorer la vie des 23 premiers ministres canadiens, de Sir John A. MacDonald à Justin Trudeau. Chaque page de ce document contient un premier ministre différent et invite à découvrir leur histoire, leur impact et une citation célèbre. Chaque page est une feuille de travail de style infographique qui invite les élèves à remplir les trous pour fournir des informations relatives à leur premier ministre. Explorez l'histoire politique du Canada!

C'est une excellente activité à laisser avec un enseignant suppléant, et ils paraissent bien sur une chronologie sur votre mur avant les entretiens parents-enseignants. 

Cette activité est destinée aux classes de la 3e à la 5e année et est idéale comme outil pour enseigner les compétences de recherche au début de l'année scolaire.

Les élèves peuvent colorier leur premier ministre sur chaque page, et vous pouvez choisir de les faire présenter à leurs pairs !

Vous souhaitez intégrer l’apprentissage par projet et par inquisition dans votre classe, tout en abordant du matériel d’études sociales ? Cet ensemble comprend toutes les ressources de ma boutique qui permettront à vos élèves d'explorer les cartes, la politique, l'histoire, l'économie, la citoyenneté, l'environnement et leur apprentissage social et émotionnel.
