Material Detail

From the website: "This section of the website is designed to enhance social studies curriculums by providing teachers with structured lesson plans that examine a variety of topics and are supplemented with video clips of related C-SPAN programming. Our lessons are separated into categories commonly studied in social studies curriculums. Our lessons contain an overview, vocab words, suggested procedure and activities, as well as potential follow up assignments to reinforce student's learning."

 An extensive collection of searchable video lessons in American History and  Social Sciences.   In addition to the lesson plans, there are  professional development  opportunities for teachers.  This is an excellent site  for anyone interested in American History  or having a starting point to teach thought  provoking topics in class. The site is kept up to date-there are discussions of current events and there is a section on comparative governments.  There is a vocabulary section for each video. For more information, the users can join as members (FREE).

Highly recommended by Denise Scott, U.S.  Experienced Educator, BASIS.Ed. Subject Expert Teacher.
