Discover how to integrate social studies into K-2 literacy instruction by using engaging historical content to build foundational ELA skills. This session explores strategies for creating small group activities that align with literacy standards while introducing young learners to important topics in social studies, such as community roles, cultural traditions, and historical figures. Participants will learn how to design lessons that enhance reading comprehension, vocabulary, and writing skills while fostering curiosity about the world around them. By embedding social studies content into literacy small groups, educators can address multiple standards, promote cross-curricular learning, and inspire a love of both history and reading. This session is ideal for teachers seeking creative ways to connect literacy with social studies themes in early education, particularly in areas of local and U.S. history.
