Social Studies Resources

Social Studies Resources from Laura Candler

Welcome to the Social Studies page on Teaching Resources! Here you’ll find a collection of printables, games, and activities for upper elementary school. Many of them are especially appropriate for 5th grade because that’s the grade that I taught. Those activities include US history resources and the stock market game materials. I also taught North Carolina history in 4th grade for a few years, so you’ll find a few NC resources, too. ~ Laura Candler
