New York Regents—Social Studies

New York Regents—Social Studies

Comprehensive coverage of the New York Social Studies Framework content and skills

Each chapter focuses on a Key Idea from the New York Framework, describes the overarching themes and enduring issues, and provides streamlined content and key terms. Standards-focused lessons include analyzing a primary source, historical content and context presented in concise language, questions for close reading, and primary source activities. Chapters end with stimulus-based multiple-choice and short-essay questions mirroring the Regents exam.

Students are prompted to “think like historians” using Social Studies Practices, analyze primary sources, and use textual evidence in their written responses.
