Lessons and Activities
Reproducible activity book
Connect with a representative to create a custom curriculum for your district.
Use document-based questions (DBQs) to show students how to analyze, interpret, and make connections between a variety of sources; bring in their own outside knowledge; and communicate their conclusions to others.
The scaffolded lessons break down DBQ analysis into smaller steps as they help students build inquiry and critical-thinking skills, improve their writing, learn how to cite evidence, form opinions, and develop a deeper overall understanding of the topic covered. Incorporating ELA/literacy requirements, subjects include geography, economics, government, and civics. Specific activities address reading maps, exchange and money, government and taxes, separation of powers, and more.
