The resources you need, however you need them
Traverse is a living digital curriculum designed for active collaboration between peers and the content. It offers customizable resources, allowing teachers and administrators to tailor the curriculum to the unique needs of students and the community. Embedded formative assessments provide opportunities for teachers to understand students’ grasp of content knowledge and remediate instruction in the classroom.
Empower students to become active citizens
Traverse is driven by inquiry and supports teachers with robust social studies skill development. Students learn historical reading, inquiry, and research skills as they explore the past. Inquiry projects for every chapter were developed in collaboration with renowned educators Kathy Swan and Sam Wineburg. They reflect a world students will recognize from what they see around them, helping them connect the learning to real-life societal issues.
