Social Studies
By Brooks and John
Do you want to know anything about Social Studies? Then read on! The Social Studies program we use here at Richards school is called Social Studies alive. It is a mix of creative activities and visiting places in our imagination.
We studied about the Northeast and the Southeast in the previous units. We “visited’’ Boston, Pennsylvania, Independence Hall, Washington D.C., and New York City. Our favorite sights were Pennsylvania and Washington D.C.
In our Southeast tour we learned about the hot humid climate of the southeast. We saw the John F. Kennedy Space center, Memphis TN, and New Orleans LO. We loved learning about Memphis and New Orleans culture.
In our current unit we are learning about the Midwest’s Michigan Soo Locks, the America Motor city, and the Mall of America. Our favorite stop was the Mall of America.
Every thee stops we do an activity that is related to the tour. One of them was an assembly line with the Motor city, and we drew our own cars that people in the 1920s would like to buy.
