    This week in the podcast we talk through Indicator D in the SCS IPG addendum walkthrough, which deals with making oral or written arguments, supported by evidence. We also walk through our curriculum check-in where we talk about opportunities for using particular strategies and texts to really get at the heart of the indicator. Finally we discuss two protocols to help synthesize evidence across multiple texts.

    Unpacking Social Studies Walkthrough Indicator B and Pacing/Content Check-in The Social Studies Team is proud to announce the launch of our new podcast!
