Elementary Social Studies Update

 Hello Elementary Community!


We are SOOOO excited to share our progress on Elementary Social Studies with you.  Our team has been working very (emphasis on very) hard to build a scope and sequence for each trimester and the corresponding unit lessons associated with it.

Today, I would like to update you with some answers to some questions shared with our team from you all after last months site update.  Many teachers really want to know, are we really going to have actual, real, tangible resources to use to scaffold our instruction?  It may seem almost unbelievable, but it is actually and totally true!

Students will be able to use and experience a textbook, an inquiry journal/workbook and a completely digital experience in which digital text and inquiry journal/workbook are available.  Teachers will use and experience a print Teacher's Edition, a digital teacher's edition full of videos, screen/slide presentations, interactive vocabulary activities, songs, plays and so much more!
In addition to these resources, your SDW Elementary Social Studies Team is providing you a curriculum with common lessons and assessments!  A sample of this curriculum is linked below (we picked 2nd grade-well, because it is "in the middle").
Please take a look at some of the features here and check out the sample curriculum! (And if you know someone working hard after school on this, treat them right and give a shout out (and a sticker!)!  We thank them so much!)
