Social Studies

Build historical reasoning through primary sources and guided conversation.

The project

Social Studies, developed as History Unfolding, helps students investigate historical images, maps, and primary sources. Its tutor asks learners to make predictions, explain their evidence, and draw conclusions, adapting the conversation to their reading level without simply giving away the answer.
