The two graphic organizers contain the same information, but one of them is differentiated for lower-level students.

These examples will increase their understanding of how to think about information and complete the graphic organizer appropriately.

These graphic organizers require students to analyze three images related to the Great Depression and Dust Bowl and draw evidence-based conclusions. The differentiated version graphic organizer includes scaffolding questions to help lower level students analyze the images and write about them. The graphic organizers also require students to cite evidence from the images to support their analysis/conclusions. The graphic organizers are visually appealing and eye catching!

These graphic organizers are excellent for Do Now, unit launch, groupwork, homework, independent work, and/or research activities. They can also be used to set a purpose for listening/watching video clips used to supplement lessons.

Geography & Social Studies Comprehension Game: Fact or Fiction?

By Geography & Math Made Easy

What a fun way to study people throughout history. My students LOVE playing this game. They couldn't wait to play it. It encourages students to use their critical thinking skills while enjoying the learning process. This is very versatile and can be used over and over.

Tired of the same old basil workbook handouts? Whether you are studying historical people or current events, this will increase student learning and improve comprehension.

This is a great way to get your students involved in their own learning, giving them autonomy, and it is an activity that can be used across the curriculum. Students will have a great time analyzing characters, acting them out, and gaining points for identifying fact or fiction. This is not only great for social studies and geography, but for any lesson in which people or characters are being studied.
