History Repeats Itself in the Classroom, Too!, provides a practical approach for satisfying the exigency of Common Core Standard implementation for social studies teachers, social studies departments and secondary school administrators. It is also an excellent source for teachers of all experience levels that are searching to augment their own content knowledge, to be aware of their students’ prior/future experiences in Social Studies and to collect rigorous writing and project based activities to be applied in the classroom. This book makes a cogent argument for the vertical alignment of social studies curriculum as an effective method for teachers to prepare students to handle readings of increasing difficulty and to improve the quality of citizenship education for all secondary students through the exploitation of content repetition and the scaffolding of content literacy skills.
