Social Studies - First Grade

District Course #113

Course Description

The first grade social studies curriculum is an introduction to the study of families and community members. During the first semester, students will focus on good citizenship through working together in the classroom and home. Students will learn about people from long ago who influenced our country's history. Second semester studies include learning about early political leaders, symbols, and significant holidays. The curriculum also includes introductory studies about diversity, technology, economics, and geography. State standards are imbedded throughout the course and guide its instructional objectives.

A Note on Standards

The first grade curriculum includes both Boise School District and State of Idaho standards. State standards include content knowledge and skills in the following areas: critical thinking and analytical skills, exploration and expansion, migration and immigration, political, social, and economic response to industrialization and technological innovation, international relations and conflicts, cultural and social development, foundations of the American political system, organization and formation of the American system of government, citizen responsibilities and rights, economic fundamentals, and geography. While each standard is expressed through specific, associated instructional objectives, instructors should seek opportunities to apply the standards throughout the course.
