I am married with two children, Jack and Heather, and we live in Spanish Fort. I have gone back to the University of South Alabama, and I am majoring in Elementary Education. This is my blog where you can explore some of the different things I have done in my studies.

Teaching with Childrens Literature


Children's literature is a great way to incorporate social studies lessons. It is an intersesting and effective way to get, and keep the students attention while at the same time teaching them important social studies concepts. At the same time as your teaching them social studies concepts you are also modeling fluent reading for the children. Here is a link to my lesson plan that incorporates children' literature.
