7th Grade World Studies in MCPS is a tough course. It's not taught sequentially the way that we parents learned history. In fact, it's not even meant to be a history course, but rather a mish mash of history, economics, political science, and geography.  It's also much harder than the 6th grade course which has kid friendly topics like Ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome. It's doubly hard if your DC is taking the advanced course rather than the on-level one.

If OP is willing to come clean, I'm happy to recommend some resources to her for this course. We had to supplement heavily when my DC's teacher went on maternity leave mid year and the long term sub knew nothing.

But if it's science, I can't help you. We were lucky to have excellent science teachers all the way k through 12.[/quote]

Sounds like a couple of people could use this, PP, if you are willing to respond.  See this other thread.
