A warm greetings to all present here. Teaching Social studies presents teachers with a unique set of challenges not always found in other disciplines. We Social studies teachers at ISWK excite students about the world, to help them see the role that they can play in making society more equal and more just, to express their ideas powerfully to see that Social studies is about real peoples lives and about their relationship with each other and nature. Creating a lively, playful, experiential curriculum about things that matter is more fun for students and we Social studies teachers at ISWK follow the mantra Tell me, Ill forget; Show me, Ill remember; Involve me, Ill understand.

The teacher poses an open-ended question to which the students learn with their learning partner and work together, sharing ideas, discussions, clarifying and challenging. The pair then shares with the whole class.

By following the Chunk and Chew strategy teachers deliver their lessons in small chunks and then give students time to chew the information either with partners or in small groups.
