Studies Weekly is a mid-sized publisher focused on educational materials for kindergarten through sixth grade. It is based in Orem, Utah, and traces its origins to 1984, when Paul Thompson, then a fourth-grade teacher, created a weekly magazine-style state history resource after finding no suitable textbook. The company’s materials are designed to support teachers by providing ready-to-use resources that facilitate classroom instruction and student engagement. Operating within the book and periodical publishing industry, Studies Weekly expanded its offerings in 2022 with a core K‑5 science curriculum fully aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards and incorporating the 5E instructional model. In 2023, the company produced two versions of a Parks lesson to support review by a state curriculum commission, illustrating engagement with curriculum-adoption processes. The materials primarily serve K–6 teachers and school systems seeking readily usable resources to support instruction and curriculum review.
