Social Studies Focus for Grades 5-6 or 7-8

UIL Social Studies Focus and Core Products

UIL A+ Social Studies Focus 2021-22 books cover the Social Studies material selected by UIL for the current school year. Outlining and encapsulating the information and concepts related to the annual special focus, these books include synopses of the topic and a glossary of important people, places, and events to know.

What is the difference between the Focus and Core products?

In addition to our Practice Packets and eMentors, we offer two sets of books to help students prepare for the UIL A+ Social Studies contests. The Core Concepts books reflect materials from the 4th-8th grade textbooks. They serve as a foundation for Social Studies contest prep covering key information that is likely to be used year-to-year in this UIL contest and are invaluable in classroom teaching. The Focus books are updated annually to fit the topic that is released at the UIL Capital Conference in July. If this topic happens to cover a few core concepts, there may be slight overlap for good measure.
