Social Studies Collection
Who keeps a town running? How can one person change the world? Who invented the telephone? This collection of 48 nonfiction books gives every student in your class something they can read on communities, leaders, and the people who changed the world — so the whole class builds the same knowledge and joins the same conversation.
Essential questionHow do people, past and present, shape the world we live in?
Communities and cultures, leaders who changed the world, explorers and inventors: the social studies topics of the early grades, each one a complete whole-class text set.
Three Text Sets, forty-eight nonfiction books: Communities & Cultures, Leaders Who Changed the World, and Explorers, Inventors & Trailblazers. Because the books range from simple to more challenging, every student — beginning readers and strong readers alike — can read about the same topic and contribute to the same discussion. Reading book after book on one topic builds the vocabulary and background knowledge that make comprehension possible.
