The book’s introduction provides a rationale for studying world history and an overview of resources and how to use them to master the TEKS. The first unit addresses test-taking, social studies, and problem-solving skills. Subsequent units cover world history from the development of early civilizations to the present day. Most chapters include practice questions formatted to reflect the STAAR end-of course exam in U.S. History (students will take this test in a later grade). The final chapter is a cumulative practice test. Each practice question references the specific world history TEKS assessed.
