Students of History Resources & Activities
All of our units are filled with a variety of activities proven to help students understand key concepts. They are based on state and national social studies standards and include Project Based Learning, digital activities, primary sources, and more. Here are just some of the resources that are included in our curriculum.
Digital Google Drive Notebooks
Each unit in our World History, US History, and Civics curricula includes fantastic Digital Interactive Notebook pages. These use the features of Google Drive and online resources to effectively engage students.
Links send students to reliable online sources to learn about the content. Then, they can type directly on their pages, insert images, and drag & drop information for a variety of interactive activities.
These digital pages are a fantastic way to integrate technology into your classroom and can be completed without printing any paper! Awesome for a 1:1 school or just a trip to the computer lab.
