Ms.Lines is Out

Ms.Lines has asked me to fill in for her since she has a meeting in Colorado so I have to teach. It is my choice to pick whether I want to teach Social Studies or Language Arts. I decided to teach Social Studies.

I would grade the children on how long it takes to finish the worksheets, how much they talk and participation. There is no such thing as a failure in my class. Every child should have the opportunity to answer the questions and feel like they did a good job in class. I would be a fun sub because I don't want the kids to have boredom or think that every time I sub it will be a disappointment.

I would teach about segregation and how the colored people was treated like they were nothing. How they didn't get that many rights if the got any at all. I would ask them to write a paper on what they thought on this very important topic. They would get to put in their judgement. The students would not have to go though the thought procedure, the brainstorming, organizing their thoughts, writing a draft, and then writing their final. A small draft and then the final is all that would be required. The students would be more than welcome to do the whole process but it is not asked of them to do so.
