Elementary teachers, often with their students for most or all of the day, have the opportunity to creatively integrate instruction across classes. In this text we explore meaningful pedagogical cross-over that goes beyond the surface level to build strong foundations and deep connections for teaching and learning in interdisciplinary ways.

Industry Reviews

This is the curricular integration book I've been waiting for! Written in a lively, engaging, style, the book provides research-based strategies and exemplar lessons that can be put directly into practice. The book emphasizes not just reading and writing but speaking and listening--crucial skills for social studies education. --Anne-Lise Halvorsen, professor, Michigan State University This book offers a rich and practical guide for fostering literacy and inquiry-based teaching and learning in elementary social studies. Grounded in both research and hands-on classroom experiences, it provides educators with concrete strategies to engage students in asking questions, analyzing diverse sources, and synthesizing knowledge to construct meaningful understandings. With its focus on authentic, interdisciplinary learning, this book is a valuable resource for educators seeking to cultivate literacy skills with a focus on curiosity, critical thinking, and a deeper connection to social studies through inquiry. --John Lee, professor and Associate Dean for Faculty and Academic Affairs, North Carolina State University
