Social Studies Philosophy:
I believe in the integration of social studies across all subject areas. I believe in the use of Children's Literature that shows multiple perspectives and supports a multicultural curriculum. I believe students need to learn history through the eyes of children not the eyes of adults. I believe that technology improves the learning experience and is an imperative part of social studies education. Overall, keeping social studies at the center ensures that standards are met and students receive the appropriate social studies education they deserve.
