Elementary teachers are deeply engaged in developing literacy skills throughout the school day. The literacy skills and strategies that are so important to learning are essential to the developing academic knowledge in all content areas. Reading, writing, listening and speaking are given purpose when they are woven into the context of social studies content. Elementary teachers address standards and strengthen social studies when literacy is embedded in the context of hands-on, minds-on learning.
