Middle School Social Studies Daily Warm-Ups & Assessments: Unit 1 (Weeks 1–8)

As a middle school Social Studies teacher, I have noticed that most students start the year with significant gaps in their social studies skills that apply to all regions and peoples of study.

I developed this resource as the solution to that problem; students will review things we would hope they already know, develop skills that they can use

Experience

I am a middle school teacher with 7 years of experience with 6th, 7th, and 8th grade. Although I teach primarily ELA, I also have experience with SS and more general Humanities content. I love middle schoolers, and helping them grow during the turbulent middle school years is incredibly rewarding.

Teaching style

I believe that high expectations with adequate support is the best way to truly help students succeed. I would call myself a "no-nonsense nurturer" because I hold students accountable for their actions while helping them learn and grow into the versions of themselves that they can be proud of.

My own education history

I have a BA in English, an MA in English for ELA Teachers, and my teaching license.

Additional biographical information

I love reading, my cat, and helping other teachers!
