I can identify one or more of the communities I belong to.
I can identify basic map features (land, water roads) and use a compass rose and coordinates to identify areas of a map. I can name three different buildings and explain why they are important in a community. I can name one thing people do to help their communities. I can give examples of how work, transportation, and home life were different in communities long ago. |

Students use a large floor map and “building” blocks to strengthen map skills and vocabulary while creating and analyzing a new town, then explore how community life differed in the past in our exhibit space. The third part of the program focuses on how decisions are made in communities, as well as ways that children can be good citizens and contribute to their communities.
