The Bayou Bridges Bootcamp helps educators understand how Louisiana’s social studies curriculum is organized, how the standards progress across grade levels, and how those pieces come together in daily instruction. Participants will break down the curriculum, examine what students are expected to know and do, and learn a practical process for planning lessons and units with greater clarity and purpose. By the end of the course, educators will be better prepared to navigate Bayou Bridges, make informed instructional decisions, and plan learning that builds knowledge and strengthens students’ social studies skills.

What does Bayou Bridges instruction actually look like in the classroom? In this webinar, Courtney models a fourth-grade Bayou Bridges lesson and breaks down the instructional decisions behind it.

Watch how she guides students through the text, pauses to check understanding, connects new learning to prior knowledge, and helps students identify key information about geography, government, religion, and civilizations.

Along the way, Courtney explains how purposeful questioning, discussion, and active reading can turn a content-heavy lesson into meaningful learning.

You’ll leave with practical strategies for planning and teaching Bayou Bridges lessons with greater clarity, engagement, and purpose.
