January 9: Place Based Learning/Local Studies, led by 2019 Montana Teacher of the Year Dylan Huisken
If we want our students to grow up to be good citizens, we must first teach them how to be good neighbors. This requires perspective and student-led research into their local history. Place-based education helps students create relevant and tangible background knowledge by looking for history in their own family, backyard, and community. This session will provide ready-to-apply tips on implementing placed-based education with local history! Register here.

Join other inspired social studies teachers to discover new ways to increase student engagement and curiosity, including Collaborative Instructional Strategies (CIS). Implementing CIS in the classroom can support your classroom community, SEL skills and bring a level of engagement into classrooms that will keep students coming back for more!
