Practical Applications for the Classroom Lizette Vilaragut
Introduction • Not a historian, professor or expert in any historical time period • Typical elementary teacher • Math skills, timed tests • Reading scores • HOW CAN I USE THIS IN MY CLASSROOM?
What Are Our Children’s Needs? • We had a vertical team meeting and agreed on the following three needs: • Note-taking • Research • Geography
Our Response • ESPG: Note-Taking and Geography • CSI: Research • GRASP: Note-Taking
ESPGs- • Economical • Social • Political • Geographical Importance of any historical event or person
CSI - A Researching Delight • Create a case number usually based on a date • Provide new clues on each page • ESPG sheet for closure • Sometimes I provide the information, sometimes they have to find it themselves.
GRASP • Read text • Close book • Jot down all facts you remember • Check book and modify (correct or enhance) • Aids comprehension and fact retention, but it does not work for maps.
