Hi, great work on your article so far. I see that you added new section to the article summarizing the early and recent history of social studies curriculum. One suggestion I have is that you might integrate this with the existing article more thoroughly. Before you got started, the article had a section on "Bulletin No. 28," which was apparently an important step in the development of social studies in the early 20th century. So your version of the article is kind of disorganized chronologically. I'll leave it to you to figure out how to handle this.

Also something looks funny with reference #5. It looks like 3 different articles instead of just one. So just double check that it's turning out right.

You've already added a good chunk of information to this article. As you work to improve it even further, I think adding more depth to the historical development of the curriculum could be interesting. Another way to improve this article might be to rewrite the lead. Best of luck! I'm really excited to see how your article continues to develop! Groceryheist (talk) 20:43, 24 January 2021 (UTC)

Hey, fantastic work on your article so far! It's clear you've invested a lot of effort in finding this article and providing a greatly expanded history and overview of the concept. Based on your efforts, I'm confident that by the time you're done with the project you'll have successfully raised the quality of this article from wp:stub-class to at least wp:start-class.

and both left you valuable feedback and I urge you to take a careful look at it as you plan your next round of changes. Overall, I think that you should feel satisfied with the content that you've added and that you're ready to shift to polishing your article.

pointed out that the formatting of the section on the 10 themes of social studies is a bit awkward and I agree. I'm not 100% sure I know what the best way to format this would be. Maybe just make the headings smaller or just use paragraphs with the themes in bold face?

left you a list of relatively minor suggestions about facts that you might include or wikilinks to add. I especially think that doing things like adding wikilinks, "also see" links, categories, and external links are good things to do when polishing an article.

Overall, I suggest you take a look at my page on polishing your article for ideas for your next round of work on this project. I also suggest that you spend some time carefully copyediting the information you've already added to make it as easy to read as possible while maintaining an wp:encyclopedic tone.

Again, great work so far. It's great to see how much you've been able to improve this article. I'm really excited to see it when you're done with it! Groceryheist (talk) 06:37, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
