What is an Echo? 

Found in every chapter of every Traverse course, Echoes are short, news-style articles where students explore connections between the world today and the social studies topic they are studying. With a number of ways to participate including Number Crunch, Poll, and Respond, students can act through the Take Informed Action activity as a way to evaluate a topic’s connection to their community or beyond. Learn more when you log into your Traverse account in the Explore the Curriculum section of the Help Center.
