12th Grade Social Studies

Twelfth grade social studies often focuses on civics, government, economics, and global perspectives that prepare teens to participate in adult life. Our 12th Grade Social Studies collection gathers vetted, secular resources for homeschoolers, afterschooling families, and caregivers teaching students around ages 17–18. You’ll find curricula and courses in American government, economics, comparative politics, global issues, and social science topics like sociology or psychology, plus tutors who can support deeper discussion and research projects. Every resource is reviewed for accuracy, inclusive perspectives, and practical relevance so seniors can connect ideas to voting, work, and community life. Use the filters to explore by topic, level (on-grade, honors, or college-style), format (textbook, online course, project-based, or discussion-based), and learner profile including ADHD, dyslexia, autism, giftedness, or 2e. Many families use these resources to build capstone projects or portfolios. If you’re unsure how to shape a meaningful twelfth grade social studies experience, Modulo’s AI learning concierge can help you choose resources aligned with your teen’s next steps.

The Indigenous Science of Permaculture
No reviews
“The Indigenous Science of Permaculture” is an essay by writer Rohini Walker, published through PBS SoCal’s Tending Nature project. It explains how many techniques celebrated in modern permaculture—like polyculture planting, cultural burning, and community-based food systems—are rooted in long-standing Indigenous land-care practices. Walker warns that when permaculture is treated as a neutral, technical toolset, it can be appropriated and stripped from those communities. The essay invites readers to see ecological design as inseparable from Indigenous science, relational worldviews, and sovereignty, and it offers a starting point for discussing land, climate justice, and decolonizing environmental education with teens.
