Social Studies

This is one of my personal favorite subjects! I`ve included a bunch of links for you to use to study and learn more about the topics you`ve enjoyed in Social Studies.

Although in Social Studies we usually do assessments in the form of projects, there will be some tests you`ll need to study for throughout the year. This link will take you to summaries of each of our lessons. They can be used to remind you of the important concepts in a lesson without having to re-read the lesson itself: Eduplace
