Emphasizing a balance of content and skills, civics education, and preparing students for informed action, the framework encompasses key components such as the Inquiry Arc, Unifying Themes, Common Core Learning Standards, Social Studies Practices, Vertical Articulation, and Learning Standards/Core Curriculum. It outlines content sequences starting from Kindergarten through Grade 5, addressing themes like self and others, family, community, and more.
