I am NOT a fan of teaching history, probably because we don’t even have SS textbooks, but this resource made it easy and fun! My students each became experts on the different colonies and made presentations based on the resources in this bundle. Thank you for taking the stress out of teaching Social Studies!

Hi Deanna! I'm so sorry you are having trouble. Can you email me at jenifer@thriveingradefive.com and tell me if it's New England, Middle, or Southern Colonies that you are not able to open and I can send you the link in a different way.

All of your American History units have been amazing to use this year! We are departmentalized, except each teacher teaches social studies to his/her homeroom. I felt lost before finding your resources. I love the added reading comprehension practice!
