About Me...

I am a student at the University of South Alabama, majoring in Elementary Education. I jokingly tell people that I want to be a school teacher when I grow up. I am a wife, a mother, and a full-time student. I am on an amazing journey, and I have learned so much more than I anticipated. I look forward to what comes in the next chapter of this book called life.

Social Studies

Lessons
     Unfortunately, Social Studies is often overlooked in many schools.  Reading, Writing, and Math are deemed more important and, therefore, receive the bulk of allotted time.  
     However, for my field experience I have been working in a school that equally values Social StudiesI have been encouraged to create lesson plans that  not only challenge my students, but also have real-life meaning.  Click here to view one such plan.  As of right now I have not taught this lesson, but I do look forward to doing so.  Here is a link to a lesson I did get to teach.  It is a shorter, more simple lesson, but still an engaging one.
