Description

"Good writing skills are a pathway to academic success and a lifelong asset for students. The social studies disciplines offer excellent opportunities for the development of these skills because social studies subjects require students to present informatiion clearly and accurately, to summarize different perspectives, and to construct persuasive arguments ... This book offers invaluable suggestions that will help social studies teachers in grades 7 through 12 to teach the skills of communication and self-expression that will enable students to achieve their college and career goals and become effective citizens with a voice in American society."--Page 4 of printed paper wrapper.
