Introducing Myself

Hello Fellow Teachers, Future Teachers, and Friends,


My name is Amy Canterbury. I have a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. I love teaching history and social studies. Social studies and history makes teaching and learning fun. I enjoy integrating history with other subjects such as reading, writing, math, art, and science. Integrating social studies with other subjects has made history exciting for my students. The lessons are easier to plan. Also, the purpose of my lessons is to allow students to become well rounded academically. They learn history and other skills while participating in critical thinking and 21st Century Skills. I am a huge fan of Bloom's Taxonomy. My lessons will show you how to incorporate Bloom's Taxonomy in your future lessons. The purpose of this blog is to show other teachers how to effectively teach social studies while also teaching other "testable" subjects such as math and reading whether you love or dread history. I hope you will continue to follow my posts and write comments.
