Part 1: October 24, 2019
Some TEKS never go away! Long-term low and repeatedly tested TEKS taunt 8th grade! Participants will be taught a process for effective use of their data to create standards based lessons, activities, and find valid resources to assist with targeting the tough TEKS in Grade 8 United States History. Participants will walk away with a Google folder of materials and strategies to use to enhance rigor and engage students in American History content. Join us as we take 8th grade Social Studies on!
