Our upcoming Social Studies unit which is due to start next week is called Families Now and Long Ago. During this unit, students will study the common needs of people and families and will make connections between family life now and in the past. They will discover that families are continually evolving but also connected to the past. Through the research of first families, pilgrims and Native Americans, students will compare and contrast family life then and now. Children will read and listen to a variety of historical fiction and nonfiction related to periods in Missouri and American history. There may be some homework associated with this unit as students will be encouraged to share information about their heritage!
