How to help at home
Visit a Texas historic site or a museum, and ask your child to explain one exhibit to you. Read a primary source together: a short letter, a declaration, a speech. Follow one local news story and talk about which level of government it involves.Source: Texas Education Agency, Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills, 19 TAC §113.15.
