DESCRIPTION

Are you looking for a more engaging way to teach community and citizenship, fairness, community helpers, rules and laws, diversity, and more? Or maybe you want a new way to kick off your school year?
Does your district have a social studies curriculum from the late 90s? Or none at all?
 
Do you have to integrate social studies units into your ELA block and never have the time to ensure that this happens in a way that does justice to both subjects?
 
Let ETTC make planning for social studies a breeze with comprehensive, done-for-you units.   
 
In Unit 1 in the series, the September Unit – Community and Citizenship, you will find that we have included everything you need to teach engaging social studies lessons.

You’ll get an up-to-date look at social studies topics. Regardless of your teaching situation, you’ll get enough materials and content to use.
And you know you’ll get it all for an incredible price.
 
We went big with this one, because go big or go home, right? Especially with social studies. It’s SO important.
 
We’ve knocked it out of the park with a unit that can be used with any grade level K-3, in any schedule situation, including…
  • Social studies integrated into ELA
