If social studies is uninteresting, it may be that…. There are no opportunities for wise acting, experiencing, and inquiring. Objects and materials of the environmental levels of the students. The range of cognitive and affective behaviors is being thwarted.

If social studies is boring... Teaching and learning are considered as the same acts. Information, conclusions, and values are being imposed.

Try these things….. Do some synthesis activities-building, doing, changing, amending. Check the media resources-what else is there to help history come alive? Get students involved.
