Planning

This week we began talking to our teacher about what she would like for us to teach for our social studies unit. She quickly responded that she has a great easy and fun unit to teach....economics. Write away I had a hard time thinking of ideas that I could teach to a group of second graders. The following day when we were at the school we asked our teacher if they had a textbook to follow because to this point we had never seen one for social studies. She responded that they didn't. Heather and I then asked what we could use to plan for our lesson and she added that she had several books that we could look through to get ideas. None of the books that she had were any benefit to us, they were on other various subject not economics. Our teacher then told us that we would have to use the Internet to get ideas for coming up with a unit. To this point we did find a few good websites that might inspire a lesson later on. So if any of you have any good ideas for second grade please let us know, we could use a good idea or two.
