myWorld Interactive is a project-based social studies curriculum that encourages active inquiry while introducing civics, economics, geography, and history concepts. It will encourage students to explore their world, expand their thinking, and become active, responsible citizens! Students develop critical thinking, problem solving, and communication skills for engaged civic life; the integrated ELA instruction also supports literacy standards.
The Student Worktext is a colorful consumable print text (also available online as an etext) that prompts students to use the digital elements online (like reference materials, interactive assignments, quizzes, audio/visual components, and games) as they work through the chapters. Students read through the lesson, complete comprehension checks and other questions designed to improve retention and understanding, work on map skills, learn how to use primary and secondary documents, and more.
The Grade 6-8 curriculum "World History" features chapters that bring students through each major stage in world history including the origins of civilization (secular - Prehistory to 4000 bce), the people of the Fertile Crescent, Ancient Egypt and Kush, Early Civilizations of India, China, Greece, and Rome, Life in Medieval Christendom, the Islamic World and South Asia, the Civilizations of the Americas, African Civilizations, the Renaissance and Reformation, Global Convergence, Enlightenment, Revolutionary Era and the Modern World.One year of access to digital resources on Savvas Realize.
