Young Citizens with Missouri History

Our social studies lessons help students learn and refine skills that will help them with ELA, math, and science, and better prepare them for high school and beyond.

Leveled readers and activities enable teachers to differentiate learning experiences based on the abilities and learning styles of individual students.

Young Citizen's Group Activity Cards

 Nystrom Young Citizens includes Group Activity Cards on different social studies topics
that directly correspond with the chapters of the Student Book. Each group activity card
includes images and information on the topic, making it easy to follow along. The cards
encourage collaborative learning while meeting key Missouri state standards.
