K–5 teachers are under constant pressure to cover every standard, often leaving social studies behind in favor of more time for literacy. But what if you didn’t have to choose? This edWeb podcast brings together district leaders to discuss how making time for social studies can boost engagement, expand content coverage, and reinforce reading and writing skills—all within your existing schedule.

Panelists share proven, practical approaches for weaving social studies concepts and standards into daily routines. Hear real examples and discover routines and resources you can use to maximize instructional time, foster student curiosity, and meet standards across subjects without increasing your workload.

This session explores questions such as:

  • How can social studies content be seamlessly woven into daily literacy instruction?
  • How can lesson planning and daily routines be adjusted to make time for both literacy and social studies?
  • How can integrated instruction help students develop critical thinking, comprehension, and relevant content knowledge?

The edWeb podcast is ideal for K–5 teachers, instructional coaches, and curriculum leaders.
