Civics

Civics helps young people understand how their communities function and how they can participate in a healthy democracy. Our Civics collection curates vetted, secular resources for homeschoolers, afterschooling families, and caregivers who want kids and teens to develop real civic literacy. You’ll find curricula on government structures, rights and responsibilities, media literacy, and community engagement, as well as simulations, case studies, and tutors who guide thoughtful discussion. Every resource is reviewed for accuracy, inclusivity, and age-appropriate handling of complex or controversial topics, with an emphasis on critical thinking rather than partisanship. Use the filters to explore by age or grade band, focus (local government, U.S. government, global citizenship, media literacy), format (books, online courses, project-based units, or live classes), and learner profile such as ADHD, autism, or 2e. Many families connect civics resources with history and current events. If you’re unsure how to introduce civics in a way that fits your family’s values, Modulo’s AI learning concierge can recommend a path.
