Successful social studies teachers fill their teaching
toolboxes with tools to help student comprehension and retention. Some
of my favorite tools are ACRONYMS.
Find one that's right for your students, and use it regularly in class
to create the foundation and structure to help your students establish
strong learning habits for their entire academic careers. One of my favorite is my BRAGS sheet.
Students are asked to Brainstorm before reading, Read for information, Anticipate what may happen next, Graphically Organize the gathered information, and Summarize the content collected on a specific topic. It hits on the key social studies elements, while also calling attention to student success!
Here are a few others you may find useful:
SPRITE - Social, Political, Religious, Intellectual, Technological, and Economic
PERSIA - Political, Economic, Religious, Societal, Intellectual, and Area (Geography)
G-PERSIA - Geography, Political, Economic, Religious, Societal, Intellectual, Arts
SPEC - Social, Political, Economic, Cultural
GRAPES - Geographic, Religious, Arts & Architecture, Political, Economic, Societal
You can find these and other great social studies posters in my Social Studies Classroom Poster Set.
