  1. The Cuban Missile Crisis David Apfelbaum

  2. Methodology Constructivism • Allows students’ to construct own meanings • Puts more emphasis on the high order thinking skills in Bloom’s Taxonomy • Works with my skills and beliefs as a teacher because there is more room to grow as a learner and allows the teacher to mold the way the information is presented to fit the needs of students

  3. Multiple Intelligences • Focus is on visual, auditory, and interpersonal learners. • Other intelligences can be touched on (kinesthetic and logical) • Impossible to focus on all learners, but many intelligences can be taught in a single lesson

  4. Bloom’s Taxonomy • Students in Social Studies classes typically will focus on the lower order thinking • Remembering and Understanding • I would like to focus on the higher order of thinking • Analyzing, Evaluating, and Creating • The PA standards I am focusing on meet these needs (8.3.U.C. and 8.4.W.C)
