Social Studies
Important Information
We will be using the Discovery Kids magazines for our textbook resources this year. Social Studies will be taught for 40 minutes every day. Todd Lane Elementary is the first school in the U.S. to use this material. It is in an engaging magazine format and should be a great way to learn about the history of our country. We will be using the online format this year.
