Social Studies Second Tuesday: Teaching Thematically
Textbooks are generally organized chronologically, but is that the best way to organize your class? Join MTHS Teacher Leaders in History Cynthia Wilondek (9th-12th grade, Big Fork) for our last Tuesday Professional Development session, April 8 from 4:30-5:30 p.m., during which Cynthia will lead a discussion on the benefits and share tips on strategies for teaching social studies with themes rather than following a timeline. Register here.
Become an MTHS Teacher Leader in History
The deadline to apply to join the Teacher Leader in History program is April 7. Read more about the program and consider applying. I've been shocked to hear some great teachers say, "I don't think I'm good enough." If you have five years of classroom experience, love Montana history, and care about improving social studies education in your district and across the state, I hope that niggling voice in the back of your head isn't stopping you from applying! Learn more about the program and find a link to apply here.
