The Challenge ELLs face

For English Language Learners, social studies is more than just a content area—it’s a daily obstacle course:

📘 Dense academic texts filled with unfamiliar terms and abstract concepts

🧭 Cultural references and idioms that assume background knowledge many ELLs don’t yet have

🗣️ Language-heavy discussions that feel out of reach

🚫 Curriculum not designed with ELLs in mind

These barriers don’t just block content—they block confidence, participation, and the chance to feel like a valued member of the classroom community.

What Civic Journey Does Differently

We design social studies resources specifically for ELLs—not as an afterthought, but from the ground up. Our content makes complex ideas accessible, engaging, and relevant without oversimplifying or diluting what matters.

With Civic Journey, teachers get:

🧩 Scaffolded lessons that support both content mastery and language development

🔍 Modified texts that preserve meaning while removing linguistic roadblocks

🌐 Culturally responsive materials that reflect and respect students' identities

⏳ Time-saving, plug-and-play resources for overextended educators

💬 Built-in language supports that help ELLs speak, write, and think like historians and citizens
