Social Studies

http://www.internet4classrooms.com/skills_3rd_social.htm Great Information on this site with direct references to the evergreen curriculum grade three social studies main themes. Now once again this is a site from the U.S. so some themes may be avoided. For example of the differences our curriculum says social studies main focuses should be social identity, heritage, interdependence, and decision making. There standards are under the headings of cultural, economic, geography, governance, history, and interactions. Slighty different but easy to get around. This site is not going to be as fun as some of my other blogs but there is a boat load of information. And even though the kids may not like it they have to learn something every once and a while. Try "food pyramids" and some of the follow up activities. Try "little bull the producer" and look at "ecosystems" which has once again tons of info. Happy blogging!
