Grade 7: Eastern Hemisphere Studies

Grade 8: US History and Government Through Reconstruction

Because these are supplementary, the timing can be determined by the school. 7th grade teachers will also have the option - this year only - of dropping the Early Humans, City States and Civilizations since it was content previously housed in 6th grade. 

In all grades, always find the most up-to-date version of all units in Atlas. We'll be migrating the supplemental units into the 7th Grade curriculum this week.
