Introducing the History Matters Review Tool!
High-quality, content-rich history instruction is essential to students’ intellectual and civic growth. The new History Matters Review Tool helps states, districts, schools, and publishers develop curriculum and instruction that equip young people for engaged citizenship. Created by experts in elementary literacy and social studies, the tool establishes a vision for high-quality social studies instruction that is content-rich, inquiry-based, grounded in stories, and includes ample opportunity for discourse and writing to build knowledge.
