Introduction to our Units
Explore the history of Asia, particularly South and Southeast Asia, through our engaging units. They are compliant with the content standards, and we have worked with leading scholars and researchers to ensure that the latest research has been included in our materials, updating the historiographical approaches to meet the scholarship and requirements of today. Each unit contains a comprehensive primer, teacher’s notes, 3-5 lesson plans (with both sequential and overview options), activity guides, assessments, and supplemental materials. Though designed to be end-user ready, please treat our lesson plans as your own: use them as they are or customize them to further suit your students and teaching style.
