Little Kindergarten SOCIAL STUDIES Thinkers {Unit 2: Then and Now}
$17.95
Little Kindergarten Social Studies Thinkers is a complete curriculum specifically for Kindergarten. It’s everything you need to introduce, teach, practice, and assess your kindergarten students. It is cross-referenced and aligned to the main topics of Kindergarten Social Studies Standards. This curriculum was completely researched, designed, and created by Karen Jones.
UNIT 2: Then and Now takes kids back a couple hundred years to see what life was like for people similar to the early settlers in the United States. Please note that this unit doesn’t specify time frames, specific groups or locations (to follow along with Kindergarten standards). We are really focusing on the concept of time (past-present-future) and what life was like long ago for people who didn’t have the things that we have today.
