Discover! Social Studies 3

Discover! Social Studies 3 turns social studies into an expedition of the best kind—one where third graders become curious explorers of world history, geography, economics, and civics. Instead of simply memorizing dates or glossing over maps, your child will read, write, think critically, and make real-world connections. With two worktexts, built-in activities, and open-ended writing prompts, this curriculum doesn't just teach facts—it builds thinkers.

Each lesson encourages your child to soak up knowledge, mull it over, and apply what he's learned in hands-on, real-life ways. Whether your child thrives on reading, writing, or getting creative with projects, this program meets him where he is. From learning about continents to exploring trade routes, he'll expand his understanding of the world—and his place in it.

The worktexts are packed with colorful illustrations, vocabulary boosters, and engaging writing tasks that keep kids on their toes without overwhelming them. Meanwhile, the instructor guide acts like your behind-the-scenes toolkit, packed with teaching tips, answer keys, and multiple suggestions to adapt for different learning styles.

The assessments book offers a mix of traditional quizzes and creative project options so your child can show what he knows in a way that fits his style.

With Discover! Social Studies 3, you'll foster global awareness, practical reasoning, and a solid civic foundation—all without ever having to beg your child to open his book. This curriculum invites and inspires, offering a broad, international perspective and a neutral stance on religion. It's social studies with spark and substance, tailor-made for curious third graders and the parents who love teaching them.
