GBTwo Stars and a Wish I like the social studies for the 6th grade level. We read the middle reading level. The photos are well done and page layouts are arranged nicely with the right vocabulary for my 11-year-old. Well done. I did observe that the upper grade levels for the history/social studies becomes too much of name and date information. I wish you could show the date items in a historical time line that would capture the kids interest more. I realize you are trying to cover certain curriculum rules. Anyway I am sure you will take this in and do something clever.

GBSeventh Grade Social Studies We love the short segments and the interactives! KD offers lots of choice for our kids when doing projects. We look forward to new content and enjoy the variety. My team and I go to Kids Discover in our planning more than we go to most other resources. Keep up the great work!!! Our kids benefit from this platform greatly.

GBI love the content of KidsDiscover… I love the content and pictures of KidsDiscover magazine. In my classroom, we use some paper versions and a lot of the online versions. My only problem I have is getting double billed. Somehow in logging in I end up signing up for a 30 free trial after already paying for the year and at the end of the year getting a bill.

GBAncient World History I love being able to assign texts for my students using Lexile levels. The graphics are interesting, helpful, and age-appropriate. My students enjoy reading the articles about ancient civilizations. The quiz with each article helps me to assess which concepts my students understand and where more review is needed. I also like the fact that I can reassign any quiz after we have explored the topic further.

GBIntegrates well with fifth grade curriculum! Three lexile levels enables us to use articles for guided reading. Alignment to NGSS standards enables me to integrate literacy and science. The units on U.S. history and Native Americans are excellent for our social studies! I teach fifth grade.
