Description
Originally intended for the classroom, this little worktext packs a big punch when it comes to secular social studies. There are 29 lessons in the worktext combined with the additional materials offered on the online platform. So, there is more than enough material for your academic year. Right off the bat students will be learning about citizenship and the role they play in their community and the world from biographies on Martin Luther King Jr., Clara Barton, and Benjamin Franklin. Students will also be exploring maps and globes throughout their learning. The pages are perforated and provide room enough for answers to comprehension questions and drawing prompts. This worktext is a wonderful introduction to social studies on its own, yet the addition of the Savvas Realize online platform provides countless tools to add to your studies. The worktext will note when there are additional online items to utilize. Tools like videos, activities, songs, readers, assessments and more can all be assigned to your student for enrichment. 181 pgs, pb. ~Rebecca
Category Description for Myworld Interactive Social Studies Gr. K-5 (2019)
Written to meet the needs of 21st century students, myWorld Interactive Social Studies is engaging, adaptable, and research-based. This is a recently updated secular social studies program and parents may want to preview the content to ensure it aligns with your family's beliefs. There are 2 components to the program: the consumable, softcover Worktext and the Online Digital Component. Purchase includes both components, and they are not sold separately.
Vibrantly illustrated, the Student Worktext provides lesson readings, comprehension checks, and a variety of other interactive activities. Many activities refer to working with a partner but homeschool families should easily be able to complete the activities. Some group activities are also mentioned, which can be adapted or skipped without problems. This course is quite adaptable for various learning situations and styles. Throughout the Worktext, icons direct the student to go online to use the digital resources. Digital resources vary by grade and lesson. Short video clips, audios, games, online assignments (called interactivity), and the like are identified. That said, there are some fantastic resources in the worktexts! Using Level 5B as my reference, there is an entire unit on Geography/Map Skills, a Writing Workshop, lists of people to know (biography potential), numerous graphs and charts, and primary sources, where students can read the documents themselves – not someone’s interpretation. Illustrations are culturally sensitive and inclusive representing multiethnic peoples, diverse cultures, and extended as well as blended families.
Online resources include the previously mentioned student resources, assessments, e-texts in Spanish, and the Teacher Resources. These resources make it easy for older students to work independently without being on the vastness of the internet. There is also a multisensory element to this program that will appeal to a variety of learners. Teacher resources are only available on the digital platform and include a wealth of helpful resources including a full teacher guide with lesson plan summaries; editable student worksheets and chapter tests; hands-on activities; leveled readers with lesson plans; and other general resources such as graphic organizers, maps, and correlations to national standards. Answers are found in the Teacher Edition e-text or more conveniently under each chapter or topic section. Students do not have access to answers. Sold as a homeschool bundle that includes a student text and one-year access to the Savvasrealize.com digital platform. ~ Sara/Deanne
