What educators are saying
Loved it! Our Social Studies curriculum is lacking, so I'm glad I found this resource. I will definitely be coming back for more.
LOVE! Can't say enough! Lots of text dependent questions and helps students practice "going back to the text" digitally as well! Great practice, especially as we transition to online state testing formats!
