Weaving ELA Skills into Social Studies Instruction

This workshop is designed to equip participants with the necessary tools to enhance their social studies classes by integrating effective English Language Arts (ELA) strategies. Participants will acquire the skills to utilize both primary and secondary sources, not simply for historical comprehension but also to elevate their students' critical reading and analytical abilities. With interactive group activities and hands-on exercises, participants will learn techniques for improving students' written communication, including persuasive writing, explanatory essays, and creative storytelling.
