Welcome to the "Social Studies" file drawer.  Here you will find materials to support integrating instruction of social studies into the rest of your curriculum.  If an item does not yet have a link, it's not ready yet, but will be soon. I hope you'll find some materials for active learning that will be helpful to you and your students!
