Cover of High School Social Studies Prompt Pack PDF

Connect the question to the evidence students examine

Frame the inquiry

Unit and inquiry-lesson prompts organize the period, theme, course and learning goals you supply.

Plan the source activity

Source-analysis, multiple-perspective and document-based-question prompts help develop activities around the material you choose.

Carry the evidence into discussion and writing

Seminar, civil-discourse and historical-argument prompts help plan how students will explain and support their thinking.

From examining a source to making an argument

A source-analysis activity can lead into a discussion, then a piece of historical writing. The pack includes prompts for each part, as well as current-events connections and assessment. Teachers select authentic sources and check historical accuracy and classroom suitability.
