Day 30! Let’s jump ahead to WWI. Space issues have made it hard to truly simulate trenches, so enter another roll your own adventure! This was a ton of fun to research 🧐 #sschat #middleschoolsocialstudies

Day 27- propaganda is a huge part of 20th century US History. Have students analyze examples for primary sources... then make some of their own!

Day 25- 🧵 Hyperdocs are 🔥 with their versatility from single concept digital worksheets to digital guides that help organize and lead students through a whole unit. Add critical thinking, debate, videos, and more! Good riddance to huge packets!
