I explored culture grams. This year is the first year I have taught social studies in a while. I am teaching 5th grade social studies this year. Using culture grams there is a state edition and world edition. In 5th grade we study the Western Hemisphere. I thought students could use the state edition for a project maybe at the beginning of the year and just focus on learning more about the United States and geography. So many students struggle knowing the difference between states, cities and countries. Then later in the year we could use the world edition for projects and students could learn more about countries in the western hemisphere. This is also a quick way for students to get facts and accurate information without doing a google search that might bring up some information that is not best for children's eyes.
Culture Grams
CultureGrams looks like a wonderfully rich resource.
