Now there is a resource designed with hands-on learning opportunities that are aligned with the NCSS standards. Included in this sourcebook are:*Assessment rubrics *Student and professional technology resources *Descriptions of various instructional models*An appendix containing background information to facilitate the users' understanding of certain activities *A glossary of specialty terms and concepts usedEach activity, which addresses multiple standards, can be used for enrichment or to accommodate students with various needs.
