38-3160 Methods for Teaching Social Studies and Science in Primary Grades This course focuses on methods for teaching social studies and science. Per the National Council for the Social Studies, this course fosters “the integrated study of the social sciences and humanities to promote civic competence.” Students will reflect, in-depth, about what it means to be a good citizen within a culturally and socio-economically diverse society. The science component of the course provides students with ideas, techniques, and strategies for applying understandings of science, technology, and engineering practices within the major content areas of science (Life, Physical, Earth, and Space Sciences). Students are exposed to a variety of science curricular materials that emphasize a hands-on, inquiry-based approach. Field experiences occur within a practicum in a Kindergarten, first, or second grade classroom.
