When I chose this topic for my thematic source, I did not realize how much was out there to actual use to teach this lesson. I already know quite well the difference between a want and a need. I want everything, I need very little. I just hope that for the 1st graders that I am going to teach this lesson to, that they are going to be open to the fact that what they think they need is really a want. I also can't believe how much there is on Teacher pay Teacher, worksheets, activities and lesson plans. It is really a great resource for beginning teachers. I also like the book choices that I came across. They all seemed to be current and relevant to the students now. My new knowledge is the knowledge of all the resources that are at my fingertips and at my local library that I can access to help me teach my students. When I talk to my field experience teacher she also offered up any of her books or text books that she has that I can use any time I want. They do not have social studies books, they usually just do a scholastic reader. She was super excited when I told her that I was going to be teaching a lesson on needs and wants. I know that most teacher want to teach social studies but are limited on their time due to demands of other subjects and their assessments.
