About The Collection
The Resource Library is a small collection of websites, external links, and other resources that were previously housed on the KSDE HGSS website. This collection is intended to provide Kansas educators with a variety of materials, ideas, and resources that align with the Kansas Standards and the instructional approach to teaching History, Government & Social Studies in Kansas.
The inclusion of a resource in this library does not constitute an endorsement or recommendation by KSDE. Rather, this is simply a place to gather and share resources that may be useful to Kansas educators.
Have a resource you’d like to share with others? If you have a website, tool, or resource that you think would be a valuable addition to the library, please complete the Google Form below.
