TCI’s Social Studies Alive! programs transform elementary social studies into a multi-faceted learning experience, both in class and in the distance learning environment. Every TCI lesson starts with some overarching concepts, which we call Essential Questions. Then the lesson uses at least one of our six unique, hands-on classroom strategies to get students excited and engaged. They become inspired to learn more and follow their curiosities.
Students practice the democratic process in meaningful ways by participating in civic discourse and engaging with their local communities. Students build empathy by reading and studying various perspectives. They will engage in writing assignments that are aligned to Common Core standards so they can strengthen their literacy skills, supporting cross-disciplinary instruction.
TCI’s offerings tap into a variety of learning styles, helping students of all abilities to succeed. All materials are field-tested to ensure their effectiveness for everybody in your classroom, from emerging readers to English learners to advanced learners.
