Book with reproducible pages
Connect with a representative to create a custom curriculum for your district.
Involve students in real-world projects and research that generate authentic interest and combat indifference toward social studies.
Each chapter approaches the subject through a different theme—folklore, culinary history, architecture, and crime, for example—and suggests relevant classroom activities and projects (ranging from recording a mini-documentary to adapting a primary-source text into a dramatic monolog) for students to complete. Also included are topic-specific annotated bibliographies and a general scoring rubric that can be adapted to assess student products. Aligned to Common Core State Standards.
