As a first-year teacher, I was able to attend an NCSS conference The virtual exhibit hall, although different this year, will still provide you with great access to new resources and and have been hooked ever since. I still remember the excitement ideas. Be sure to visit the virtual exhibit hall and take home lots of virtual swag. Also be sure to check out the of looking over the program and trying mightily to narrow down #sschat unconference. During the “unconference” sessions, teachers can lead and participate in discussions of what sessions I would attend. I remember being in awe as I walked social studies topics of interest that might not be covered elsewhere. This is a great way to share what you know through the exhibit hall, gathering so many great resources and and learn from others. We will also highlight the work of NCSS Communities. Communities connect members countless free swag. Teachers can never have enough pens and with interest in specific topic areas. Check out the showcase and consider joining an NCSS Community if you sticky notes, right?! I remember the feeling of community and have not already done so. togetherness
