Social Studies Lesson Plans

Creating your own lesson plans takes a lot of work but can be really fun at the same time! You can precisely cater lessons to meet the specific needs of your students, take their individual texts into consideration and add your own supplemental materials. Creating lessons is something in which you can express your creativity as well as content knowledge and can be extra-rewarding when desired results are achieved. Developing well-planned lessons is a learned skill, and it can take many years to fine-tune or polish the fruits of your labor. Why reinvent the wheel for every class when you can research great lessons and either use them as written or tweak them to your own liking? There are thousands of lesson plans available on the Internet, and you should not feel guilty using them as you see fit: that’s what they’re for! Here, you will find a listing of thirty great lesson plan sites for social studies teachers. Peruse, use and modify, but more importantly, have fun doing so!
