Many of our social studies teachers have let us know how helpful the Maps, Charts and Graphs lessons in Skills Tutor are for their students. Lots of schools find this a difficult part of their standardized testing. Skills Tutor can be a great way to sharpen up those skills.
To find the lessons, look under Information Skills. There you will find a section named Using Maps, Charts, and Graphs. You will find lessons such as: Latitude and Longitude, Picture Graphs, Bar Graphs and Tables. There is also a prescriptive pretest and a posttest to measure retention of the lessons.
If you need any assistance with Skills Tutor, contact your project leader with your questions.
This blog is designed to assist and inspire Skills Iowa schools in their efforts to improve student learning.
