Grade 5 Social Studies: American History from Native Peoples to the Founding · Teacher Edition

Arriving · Written · waiting for a credentialed teacher's review and signature before it can sell

This Teacher Edition walks beside the Grade 5 Social Studies Student Edition page for page. It plans a 36-week year in eleven units: the geography of early America; Native nations of the Eastern Woodlands, Plains, Southwest and Pacific Coast; exploration and contact; the founding of the colonies; colonial life and economy; slavery in the colonies; the causes and course of the Revolution; the Declaration of Independence; the Constitution and the Bill of Rights; and citizens in a new nation.

Each of the 44 lessons sets out what to say, how to model the thinking, the practice to run and every answer inline, with notes on common mix-ups, smaller steps, harder stretches and sentence frames for multilingual learners. Guidance for hard history keeps it plain and accurate, never graphic or role-played, and keeps many perspectives in view. Primary sources, case studies and a year-long museum exhibit build real historian habits; every task has a four-level rubric and every unit a note to copy home.
