Scope and Sequence for All Grade Levels are Here!

Scope and Sequence for All Grade Levels are Here!

Whether you enjoy finding opportunities within a well-structured sequence of resources or prefer looking around for pieces and bits that can be jigsawed together, our Scope & Sequence documents are a perfect reference point for jumpstarting your lesson planning for the upcoming school year.

Our Scope & Sequence documents—available for elementary, middle, and high school classrooms—list all of our resources in one place, broken up into curriculum units.

  • Our elementary Scope & Sequence organizes over 50 mystery lessons into units broken out by grade level and topic.
  • Our middle school Scope & Sequence organizes our 14 games and over 250 lesson plans into 21 units.
  • Our high school Scope & Sequence organizes our 14 games and over 100 lesson plans into 17 units.

Most of our resources stand alone and don’t require teaching another lesson first, so you can pick and choose what will work best for your students and the timing of your curriculum. 

For those who prefer a structured approach to planning, the resources within each unit have been organized in an order that seems most logical to the iCivics Curriculum Team.

Use the Scope & Sequence to help you plan your iCivics classroom experience!

Amanda weaves the Constitution throughout her class to help students make real connections

The Constitution is the foundation for nearly everything I do in my class, even if my students don’t always realize it. That’s by design: I weave it into lessons, discussions, projects, and more. It’s like a civics sneak attack! The goal is to make sure students understand the Constitution itself,
