Integrating Subjects
• Due to small amounts of time spent in Social Studies, we believe it’s important to bring it into your literacy lessons.
![Page 5: Social Studies & Literature: Fever 1793](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061616/568138ff550346895da0b5a2/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Few Examples
• Using “Anne Frank” while discussing World War II
• Using “Watsons Go to Birmingham” to discuss about civil rights
• Using “Fever” to discuss past epidemics
![Page 6: Social Studies & Literature: Fever 1793](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061616/568138ff550346895da0b5a2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Brief Activity
• Reflect on your past experiences on the index card or think about a time in the classroom
• Include title of book you read and the history lesson it was integrated with
• We will combine the list to send out in an e-mail as a future reference for your field experiences
![Page 7: Social Studies & Literature: Fever 1793](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061616/568138ff550346895da0b5a2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Literature Circles in Social Studies
• Similar to the activity we did in TE401• Have the students read books from different
time periods and have the students present so they can get a visual historical timeline
• Have the students read books from the same time period to see multiple perspectives
• What type of history lessons do you think you could use to fit into these activities?

Evaluating Fever 1793
• Does Fever 1793 meet the criteria for “good historical fiction?” Why or why not?

Inside/Outside Circle
– Observations about Fever • Stand in two circles facing one another• Each share with student first reaction to story• Move three students over and share what was
one thing that you hated about the book• Move five students over and share one new
historical fact learned
![Page 13: Social Studies & Literature: Fever 1793](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061616/568138ff550346895da0b5a2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
“ticket”
One technique to ensure children complete readings is to require them to have a “ticket” to enter discussion – the ticket demonstrates they did their homework– A ticket could be a worksheet for
homework– A ticket could be an in-class quiz
![Page 14: Social Studies & Literature: Fever 1793](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061616/568138ff550346895da0b5a2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Ticket to go
• Write down your three questions
• Pass them to front• Mix them up• Pass them back out• Discuss in small group

Socratic Seminar
• The Socratic method of teaching is based on Socrates' theory that it is more important to enable students to think for themselves than to merely fill their heads with "right" answers.
• He regularly engaged his pupils in dialogues by responding to their questions with questions, instead of answers. This process encourages divergent thinking rather than convergent.
![Page 27: Social Studies & Literature: Fever 1793](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061616/568138ff550346895da0b5a2/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Discussion• What was Philadelphia like in 1793? What were the advantages and disadvantages of
living in the countryside outside of Philadelphia?
• How would you describe Philadelphia in 1793? Use examples from the text to support your assertion
• During the Revolutionary War, women took on tasks that were traditionally performed by men. After the War, they were expected to go back to their spinning wheels and kitchens. How are Mattie's dreams in conflict with what her society expected of young women? Why did Mattie's mother want a different life for her daughter?
• The Free African Society volunteered to take care of the sick and bury the dead, even though there was no cure for yellow fever. How do you think they felt? Why did they do that? Would you have helped?
• Each chapter begins with a primary source quote, choose a quote that helps you understand the time period in which this story took place.

• How does Anderson treat class in the book? Give specific examples.
• Mattie's grandfather didn't think there was any need to rush out of Philadelphia when the fever started to spread. Why did some people think it was safe to stay? What would you have done?
• Whom does Grandfather, Pernilla Ogilvie (and others) blame for bringing the fever to Philadelphia? Why?
• What themes or issues presented in Fever 1793 may be relevant in the daily lives of your
K-8 students?
