180 Days of Social Studies Grade 5
Concepts aren't truly learned until they're put into practice! Build students' fluency of key skills with this easy-to-use resource. These daily practice activities can be used in the classroom or at home.
180 Days of Social Studies provides teachers and parents with 180 days of daily practice to build students' social studies content-area literacy. The quick, diagnostic-based activities support the C3 Framework and allow busy teachers to cover social studies content daily.
Through these weekly units, students will analyze and evaluate primary source documents, answer text-dependent questions, and improve their social studies knowledge, critical thinking, and reasoning skills. Each week will assess students' knowledge of grade-level social studies content, and focuses on a grade-level topic within one of the four social studies disciplines: geography, economics, civics, and history.
This workbook helps teachers meet the National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS) and state standards in their classrooms. With these daily worksheets, students will increase their social studies knowledge in no time! Digital files are included.

Each daily task is given on a full-size practice page; exercises are perfect for warm-ups, "problem of the day" type activities, or as homework. Books are softcover, have classroom-reproducible pages. Answer key included.
