@ jeifling I really like that idea. Across all subjects would really give students something more meaningful. #sschat
»
»
»
»
@ MrsLangton You're welcome. I like it much better. Glogster was very sensitive... #sschat
»
Got a Droid today... any suggestions on apps for a HS SS teacher? #sschat
»
»
@ ShawnMcCusker What about off hours planning like we do on here. Are they willing to put in a little extra time? #sschat
»
We used to do a unit across all subjects...we would just have a common theme such as baseball. Lessons would center around topic. #sschat
»
»
@ Ron_Peck #sschat without a commitment to common planning talk about cross curricular planning is lip service.
»
»
@ ShawnMcCusker That would be great. We meet maybe once a month. Most of the time it is by email and GDocs. #sschat
»
»
»
@ gregkulowiec For example--do you have mostly fully teamed students? We have 20-25% in cross-teamed situations, hard to collaborate #sschat
»
Loved #sschat - now to finish hanging shelves in the office... have good weeks all!
»
Fantastic #sschat tonight. Think this is going to hit the record books. Hope it isn't a president's day anomaly. Thx for sharing!
»
»
»
RT @ mshuflin: @ Ron_Peck what about poetry? in flander's field, white man's burden, etc? #sschat maybe that is another list altogether
»
»
Glad to be a small part of #sschat tonight. Hope to make make it every week.
»
I missed my calling. Should have been a history teacher. You folks on #sschat are the best!
»
@ Ron_Peck I used to work at a school that had cross-curricular teams that met twice a week #sschat
»
Thanks to all for a great #sschat. I'll have archive up in a few. Be sure to add some books to the list.
»
@ Ron_Peck what about poetry? in flander's field, white man's burden, etc? #sschat
»
@ mr_johansson Probably. Hope not. sschat might need to give ideas for 4th of July class parties. #sschat
»
»
@ mskasejanowski just finished French rev. Check out the video project: www.kulowiectech.blogspot.com #sschat
»
@ mr_johansson Always glad to collaborate. Let me know if you have any questions. We do a lot of cross-curricular; came in late #sschat
»
»
I thought it would work best if we have a column for World History and one for US History. Any other thoughts? #sschat
»
»
RT @ CapnChad: Thanks for the ideas. Off to shovel SNOW! <--- me too, like 5 in in last hour! Snow day tomorrow? #sschat
»
»
Thanks everyone. I love that this is on Mondays. It gets me so charged for the rest of the week. #sschat

RT @ mrnesi: Great conversation #sschat! Can't wait to be around more!

Thanks for the ideas. Off to shovel SNOW! #sschat

Thanks for sharing, everyone. First-timer and jumped in late, but will be back again. Best to all! #sschat

Oh no I missed #sschat ! I'm on vacation....I don't know what day it is, lol!
»
»
Great conversation #sschat! Can't wait to be around more!
»
@ ThomasRiddle_II Great idea - will think about it, and maybe spend my summer that way... will see! Thanks for the tip! #sschat
»
#sschat thanks for letting me lurk and learn take care stay safe and tweet you all next time! :0)
»
»
»
What about those Hans videos with hundreds of years if history / stats. Gapminder? #sschat
»
»
Lots of new contributors tonight on #sschat, make sure to follow them I know they expanded the archives x 10 tonight #sschat
»
Wow, that went fast. Time to wrap up. Share your last thoughts and don't forget the Google Doc I set up for Books. #sschat
»
So @ gregkulowiec if you ever need any ideas about how to bring mathematics/science into your lessons... tweet me! ;-) #sschat
»
»
»
Nice #sschat tonight! Thanks to everyone. (must go watch House now - I think he's visiting a school in tonight's episode #scary)
»
»
I will be blogging shortly about how a scientific mission resulted in British contact with Australia and Hawai'i... #sschat
»
RT @ Ron_Peck: If we could just sit down with a few teachers in other departments .... #sschat
»
Good way to intro math/soc st is through polling/survey tools & also spreadsheets. Underutilized, IMO. Can begin in elem. #sschat
»
»
»
If we could just sit down with a few teachers in other departments and present some of these ideas, some great things could happen. #sschat
»
»
It's not just mathematics, but the way thinking has been changed by 'radical' scientists against the prevailing society... Galileo? #sschat
»
»
@ gregkulowiec that would be so cool - life is cross curricular but were in the habit of compartmentalizing so it feels unntrl IMHO #sschat
»
»
»
@ ScottElias: Social Networking = Social Learning (powerful Prof Dev) | Me: the New Epistemology = Knowledge is Social. #ITSC11 #sschat
»
»
»
»
»
We collaborate with ELA on historical novels... The Things They Carried and Vietnam worked well. #sschat
»
»
Best way to collaborate on team is to devote a whole day to one discipline & let kids work on big projects all day. #sschat
»
@ mr_johansson It's mine. As K-12 ss coordinator, I managed it. Can be done in school, though. www.indyintheclassroom.com #sschat
»
@ ColinTGraham I love that you busted this out at 52 minutes into the chat... Great job! #sschat
»
@ gregkulowiec Florence Nightingale was a statistician and her data collection led to current practices of clinical nursing... #sschat
»
@ iteach4change Will, it helps that I'm a former admin but I tell them how much it will increase student achievement. #sschat
»
@ Becky_Ellis_ #sschat it is a gaming site sponsored by US Dept of Labor, so much educational stuff!
»
»

RT @ ColinTGraham:OK, you got me started... invention of zero, Eurocentricity in maths, history of pi, influence of Church on science #sschat

@ gregkulowiec OK, you got me started... invention of zero, Eurocentricity in maths, history of pi, influence of Church on science... #sschat

@ gregkulowiec Not yet...but I keep talking w/ math teachers about using #s that relate to topics I am teaching i.e. immigration #sschat
»
»
@ gregkulowiec in 6th grade math teachers do mayan math when we're studying the ancient maya #sschat
»
»
@ iteach4change At my school we have common time for prep. But I have found that if you get admin on board they will help sell it. #sschat
»
RT @ gregkulowiec: Any successful connections between history and math? #sschat >>Quilting (Underground RR) & geometry in MS.
»
»
Could do something w/speculate on same event but different person involved - like changing a variable. #sschat
»
Oh, don't get me started Greg! :-) RT @ gregkulowiec: Any successful connections between history and math? #sschat
»
Great Idea... via (@ kristenNsanchez) have LA & SS teachers work together for 7th digital museum about slavery using glogster & wikis #sschat
»
@ Ron_Pecl - btw heard good things abt joint proj on ashcan painters/prog era #sschat
»
someone in a blog just showed a JFK assassination math worksheet -- is this ringing any bells for people??? #sschat
»
»
Any successful connections between history and math? #sschat

RT @ lmsahistory: for me collab time is energy producing not draining. #sschat This is the kind of synergy that builds school culture!
»
RT @ Becky_Ellis_: RT @ CapnChad: Less work new collabs have to do, better. Hook'em with a couple easy successes. <-- great idea! #sschat
»
@ lmsahistory I agree but for many teachers it is the fear of unknown. They like what they know. #sschat
»
»
@ Becky_Ellis_ Again, teacher-led PD requires imagination/support from the admin. Go to the school's business manager/bursar! #sschat
»
we partner w/ ELA on Holocaust (anne frank diary unit in ELA and schindlers list/ historical study in SS) #sschat
»
»
RT @ CapnChad: Less work new collabs have to do, better. Hook'em with a couple easy successes. #sschat

There is fear of losing control or that it will take too much time to plan but for me collab time is energy producing not draining. #sschat

@ lmsahistory If we ever have the good fortune to meet, I'm going to be looking for a little girl in cowboy costume. Makes me smile. #sschat
»
Indiana Jones-themed proj. across our district w/15 schools participating; research incl hist./art/lit/science http://bit.ly/dM9wT2 #sschat
»
Another simple cross-curricular idea = have students find connections in whatever you're studying. They never fail to surprise me! #sschat
»
6th graders look forward to performing in the gym for the grade school during the medieval festival. #sschat
»
Pushing writing skills is important too - just have them write, comment, blog, whatever. #sschat
»
we have LA & SS teachers work together for 7th grade digital museum about slavery using glogster & wikis #sschat
»
'The genie is out of the bottle' -Assessing a changing Arab world w/ Noam Chomsky & Marwan Bishara: http://bit.ly/iiGeF2 [video] #sschat
»
We just went to google apps & 9th graders will blog 1 a week across the curriculum. Team teachers will read, assess & comment. #sschat
»
»
@ ColinTGraham I wish it didn't come down to the almighty dollar! But teacher led PD could encourage this kind of proactivity! #sschat
»
@ iteach4change I think that's wht most of us try 2 do. 4 sum its the time factor. ths term ive 4 preps. Head still spinning. #sschat
»
Also partner with ELA teachers to teach mythology w/ #starwars; based on Joseph Campbell's Hero's Journey. #sschat
»
@ Ron_Peck Right, then they can keep it forever, as opposed to throwing it away when class is over... #sschat
»
Have had success last few weeks opening class' current events discussion to others in our building & beyond - http://bit.ly/fGrbQn #sschat
»
Very cool! "@ Ron_Peck: This year we are having students read and create a Prezi and Blog to connect cross curricular. #sschat"
»
»
»
@ Becky_Ellis_ Yes and more training=more expense... also, the people who should be participating in this discussion aren't! #sschat
»
@ mr_johansson I like that idea. Get them in Google apps/docs and have them create ideas of their own for writing/projects. #sschat
»
»
@ padgets #sschat "maybe I smell" HA! I wonder that sometimes when no one responds to my emails.
»
Got to run to set up an online election ballot for senior superlatives. Enjoyed the discussion. #sschat
»
@ analieses We do that - sort of, but in bus class - they sell t-shirts, etc. Works okay. They even sell stocks. #sschat
»
»
»
»
»
»
»
For a recent project, my team let me have the entire day for history projects. That is serious collaboration. #sschat
»
I use Music with a lot of projects as well as letting students create 3D models in shop class. #sschat
»
»
econ class w/ biz class to develop a product for the school store would be a dream of mine #sschat
»
RT @ HistoryandTech: Our Lang. Arts teachers have been annotating speeches like Emancipation Proc & Washington's Farewell. #sschat Nice!
»
@ Ron_Peck I was thinking about having them use Evernote, and add stuff like a portfolio throughout year, from all subjects. Ideas? #sschat
»
Our Lang. Arts teachers have been annotating speeches like Emancipation Proc & Washington's Farewell. #sschat
»
»
I also think it is a lot easier if you have houses w/ common teachers. We have freshman houses that can def. do more collaboration. #sschat
»
»
Best collabo: Kids wrote modern / real life examples of the Allegory of the Cave, English teacher helped w/ scripts & performance. #sschat
»
RT @ Ron_Peck: Small steps will change everything with time. Not easy! #sschat
»
»
#sschat others wanting to know what I am doing so if you show how great can be think likely to get someone, not me :( maybe it is the tech
»
»
Other ideas for types of projects you have done or would like to do at your school? #sschat
»
I think showing how to use Google Docs would aid in collaboration between departments and teachers. #sschat
»
@ mr_johansson Projects such as the Design for Change contest can lead to a shift in mind-set about what school is for... #sschat
»
»
@ MaryKK no problem! As baseball season approaches, it would be really cool for kids. Also, they can gear it to any grade level. #sschat
»
»
@ gregkulowiec Started identifying types of projects. I made a google doc for book list and now we are discussing collaboration. #sschat
»
@ CapnChad Def common planning time is key. In HS, its diff. Collabs w/in my dept--Teacher Swap! Hard 2coord w/ outside subj areas #sschat
»
"@ johnsonmaryj But no matter what your level, you can always collaborate with the librarian! #sschat" I LOVE our librarian! @ kcterry
»
@ mr_johansson Well it can be made easier if things are done in the right way... start with the students, always! #sschat
»
»
»
@ ColinTGraham yes, I was surprised at how many don't know how to collaborate. But this is a skill which should be taught! #sschat
»
I'm a bit late, catch me up! #sschat
»
»
»
»
#sschat when I went to a more student centered classroom parents thought I just left their kids to do things all on thier own
»
»
RT @ johnsonmaryj: But no matter what your level, you can always collaborate with the librarian! #sschat <--this should be the first resource
»
@ Ron_Peck They're working on it. I suggested common 1st hour for all teachers, since we have no buses anymore... would solve lots! #sschat
»
@ Ron_Peck It also requires training in 'being collaborative' and finding people you are comfortable collaborating with... #sschat
»
absolutely! RT @ johnsonmaryj: But no matter what your level, you can always collaborate with the librarian! #sschat
»
Some admin are willing to support cross-curriculum projects with release time and a little nudge on other teachers. #sschat
»
I think there is a danger of just doing something together for the sake of it but that doesn't have students thinking critically. #sschat
»
But no matter what your level, you can always collaborate with the librarian! #sschat
»
»
@ mr_johansson The 'fix' requires complete attitudinal change from teachers, students, parents, admin, local community... #sschat
»
@ mr_johansson I would say get admin involved in what you would like to do and see if they will give planning time. #sschat
»
first 2 tin tin books great way into study of 1920s ussr and usa (from an 'old europe' perspective) #sschat
»
@ lmsahistory Teachers need to be guided by experienced & sensitive person who understands how challenging it can be to "let" go. #sschat
»
The real key is having common plan time to work together. #sschat
»
Frankly, it's easier to do cross-curricular collaborations in middle school model. HS? Start one collab at a time. #sschat
»
»
»
for the cooking ideas check out tomato bread made in a coffee can from wwii as well #sschat
»
@ ColinTGraham Yes, I think that's part of it. Also, time it takes to work on collaboration. #sschat
»
»
We just started teaming in 2009-10. Surprised we vets were most excited about sharing ideas to combine! #sschat
»
»
Doing mapping activities, covering things like the survey of India by triangulation... geography, history, maths... #sschat
»
IBeen working w/the home economics teacher to create cross curricular lessons in World History. Hoping to expand cultural awareness #sschat
»
My PBL school mandates cross-curricular projects, but w/ leadership all schools can push teachers to discover its benefits. #sschat
»
@ Becky_Ellis_ I think U have 2 just do it on yr own. Find out their plan 4 teaching & try 2 align. mayB they will B wiliing later. #sschat
»
@ JenniferBarnett I agree that is why I think attending PD together about a topic is a good way to take the first steps. #sschat
»
RT @ analieses: i think they have to see what's in it for them as well as their students for collaboration - objectives met etc #sschat <-yes
»
& hre's the CW film page started on #SSCHAT B4 | http://bit.ly/f8gg4z | thx 2 all who have helped - wrkn on a film review assign 4 20th CWH

#sschat Dropped son off at Drivers Ed fir first time. I will try to keep up on my phone tonight.
»
So how do you go about adding cross curricular projects to the school culture? #sschat
»
i'm lucky enough to have interdisc built in to my sm lrng comm'y but otherwise finding common time & enough common kids is hard #sschat
»
@ MaryKK Go to the Cooperstown Hall of Fame sight and you'll see the link to their field trips. They are very inexpensive! #sschat
»
RT @ JenniferBarnett: teacher "alienation" isn't that they aren't willing to cooperate - they just don't know how or what to do. #sschat
»
A lot of the teacher "alienation" isn't that they aren't willing to cooperate - they just don't know how or what to do. #sschat
»
@ mr_johansson True! Or they're not confident enough in what they do to be exposed to another more creative teacher. #sschat
»
@ mr_johansson wait are you doing a victory garden? That is brilliant! That would have lots of cross curricular application #sschat
»
RT @ BrdCmpbll: Making liberty bread for wwi unit was huge #sschat have a recipe?
»
@ Ron_Peck I think it's 'fighting for my own turf' in the face of budget cuts, etc. etc. and forgetting there are students out there #sschat
»
@ JenniferBarnett Do you have the link for the Baseball Hall of Fame virtual field trip? Have a baseball fanatic in my class :-) #sschat
»
@ BrdCmpbll What's the recipe... we're growing a garden in the spring, I think... #sschat

@ mr_johansson Or there is just so much 'stuff' to get through, and external pressures, and no planning time allocated and... excuses #sschat
»
»
»

@ Becky_Ellis_ Thanks! They liked it a lot. Except for the kids that were scared of the dark... #sschat
»
@ lmsahistory LOL new gig I walked into. Seems to be a great opportunity w/ lots of admin support! :) #sschat

@ classroomtools I had some students write a short movie, then shoot it for a project. Great stuff! #sschat

@ edtgraff or choose an issue from today and write in the style of cold war era #sschat
»
I've thought about having PE and history work together to help kids get idea of war time marches , or battle type skirmishes. #sschat
»
I think having SS teachers & art/music tchrs attend PD together. I went to 1 last week on using photos in class. It helped me a lot. #sschat
»

»
@ mshuflin that's kinda what I was thinking. maybe music students could have to option to write one of their own #sschat

@ Becky_Ellis_ They created their own political ad campaign at the beginning of the year and are making PSAs about related to Egypt. #sschat
»
@ ColinTGraham @ padgets More like a lack of creativity on the part of those teachers. Don't like to venture out of their cave. #sschat
»
»
late to #sschat, just got caught up. I taught a American Studies class when student teaching. U.S. History and American Lit combined
»
I have done history focused projects with computer tech classes too. They have to do reports etc. why not learn about history? #sschat
»
»
»
@ padgets NOVA and NOVA Science Now also have terrific videos online, as does KQED's Quest site. #sschat
»
Probably the subject is too scary, rather than you Sharon. RT @ padgets: #sschat maybe I am just too scary
»
Another good book re: WWII - The Good Old Days - from the perspective of Germans - gives totally new understanding of war... #sschat
»
@ edtgraff I'll start a Google Doc or PBworks Doc if everyone wants one for book list. #sschat

Anyone else using the art poster set from Library of Congress? Art, images, photos - match great with SS content... #sschat

@ Ron_Peck And point out all those unexpected people in favour of eugenics... not just the Nazis... @ padgets #sschat
»
@ Becky_Ellis_ ... The value of collective bargaining is immediately evident. A valuable lesson given the news from Wisconsin. #sschat
»
»
@ lmsahistory that is a fascinating connection. I hadn't thought about researching the art and connecting it to history #sschat
»
In my last unit, used art by having students learn to write their names in Mayan glyphs #sschat
»
»
@ Ron_Peck #sschat yes, would love to, but I have been turned down by everyone in the 6 teacher dept. :(
»
@ Becky_Ellis_ .. by having them look at wages & expenses in 1888-90, then factoring out inflation & comparing to 30's, 60's today... #sschat
»
How about projects? What's your focus? Creative / Writing / Publishing Online OR content only? #sschat
»
We have a great cross curricular class- Art and the History of Propaganda & I team teach women's studies w/ an english teacher. #sschat
»
#sschat I am sorry Ron is there a sschat wiki to share?

Swing Kids is a great WWII choice as well! #sschat

@ BrdCmpbll So, you might have students in different teacher's classes not reading the same novel? #sschat
»
I would love to help with that list of books and movies. Newsys for prog and annie for great depression #sschat @ edtgraff
»
Anyone using "The Ugly American" for Vietnam? Really good, but a bit long perhaps for USHIST in HS... thoughts? #sschat
»
»
@ padgets I love the idea of connecting Science or a topic like genetics to history. I'd be all over that. #sschat
»
@ padgets Given the effects on society of physics, chemistry & biology; that is surprising. #sschat
»
»
@ classroomtools that is such an important connection, sometimes history IS about the numbers. Great example #sschat
»
»
My school doesn't have a book that all read at the same time #sschat
»
@ edtgraff I have a short list but we should start a more comprehensive list. #sschat
»
#sschat we are doing a genetics unit right now, could do some great stuff with SS, but no takers at my school
»
I'm thinking about using American Girl books (w/ Molly in 1940s) to give alt text for WWII - ideas? #sschat
»
»
#sschat I get very few requests to partner :(
»
Does some1 have a list of books and the SS topics they fit with? Should we start 1? #sschat
»
What about with Science or Math? #sschat
»
»
@ classroomtools Yep, I use gapminder.org all the time in econmics, then we do our own stats, etc. #sschat
»
»
This year we are having students read and create a Prezi and Blog to connect cross curricular. #sschat
»
»
»
RT @ JenniferBarnett: Another natural match is Cold War and novel 1984 #sschat That could also be current events too :)
»
We used the book MACNOLIA (abt AA girl winning spelling be from Akron, OH) with SS / ENG - worked great! #sschat
»
Any time I have done cross curricular projects, the students were so much more engaged when one or more subject areas were covering. #sschat
»
»
Another natural match is Cold War and novel 1984 #sschat
»
PD day today. first time i can actually follow #sschat in months!
»
»
»
@ BrdCmpbll Yes, and then drop them a note about what you are doing. See how students react and give English teachers feedback. #sschat
»
@ BrdCmpbll I agree, it usually takes one person to get the ball rolling on the cross curricular projects. #sschat
»
@ Ron_Peck #sschat interesting perspective. Goto water instead of asking water to come to you
»
»
Books like "Night" or "The Grapes of Wrath" work really well. #sschat
»
#sschat Right now we are doing romeo and juliet with math, science english and ss so cool kids say shakespeare not that bad
»
»
I always try to align the Holocaust, Great Depression and Cold War with what English is having them read and study. #sschat
