Assignment, History Through a Child's Eyes, after my interview with my students, I chose just a few of their answers I thought were funny. It is interesting what children remember from their history lessons, here are some of their thoughts:

This website is a result from a social studies method course. We are discovering different ways, how and what to teach primary grade students, social studies. I hope that this site can provide resources that my classmates and I have found that were informational and interesting. The journal entries are just some of my thoughts, they are not founded on any kind of intense research. Enjoy!
