On this page, you will find most of our available teaching resources. We have organized them by cycle. Some resources are available via the main Elementary Social Sciences page on LEARN (like organizers, icons, Cycle 1 resources and the MEES program documents).
If you are looking for resources pertaining to a specific society and/or time period, we have also added an educator’s corner at the bottom of the main page for each society section. These are the same resources listed below, but they are filtered by society instead of by cycle.
Finally, the below resources can also be accessed via the purple Educators tab in the top menu.
