2015年社会学

社会研究课程采用

正规买足球的App has adopted instructional materials for the 中学 (6-8) Social Studies courses of Ancient World 历史, 世界历史/地理, 和你.S. 历史. (Instructional materials for 华盛顿 State 历史 remain current and are not included in this adoption.)

一个收养委员会建议使用下列材料:

六年级世界史: 麦克劳·希尔的《买正规足球比赛的app》
七年级世界史: 霍尔特·麦克杜格尔的《买正规足球比赛的app》
八年级U.S. 历史: 霍尔特·麦克道格尔的《买正规足球比赛的app》

该建议于2015年秋季获得了买正规足球比赛的app的批准, 教材将于2016年初提供给学校.

一个由二十多名教师组成的收养委员会, 课程专家, 家长及社区成员 met beginning in March 2015 to narrow down the materials. After surveying the community and holding two separate public materials review periods, 委员会提出了这些建议.

凯萨琳Vasquez，扫盲和社会研究项目经理, 与董事会的课程一起审查了这些建议 & 2015年8月，指导政策委员会.

“We selected the text that we believe had the most attention to diverse perspectives,”她说。. 这一特点被确定为社区的最优先事项. 事实上, Vasquez plans to form another community-based committee to assist teachers in supplementing the recommended texts with an even wider diversity of materials to improve the balance of multicultural perspectives.

The recommended materials offer supplements and supports for a range of students, 包括高级学习者. Vasquez noted that the McGraw Hill materials were chosen for sixth-grade because they offer more supports for younger students, and Holt was chosen for seventh and eighth grades because those materials offer an increase in rigor.

“我们非常仔细地研究了这些文本是如何让学生进行分析的, 合成, 并在高层次上提出问题,”她说。. The committee was particularly impressed with Holt’s “Reading Like a Historian” companion materials, which teach students to go beyond finding evidence to look closely for issues such as bias.

“我们称之为‘学科素养’，”她说. “历史学家如何阅读和撰写文本?”
