Social Studies

Unit 4 is all about "Working". The students are learning about needs and wants. The students are learning about producers and consumers too. They're also learning about goods and services. Our Magic House field trip is all about working in a community. The students filled out job applications to show where they would like to work on the field trip. There are 9 work sites: Pet Clinic, Hospital, Market, Ranger Station, Restaurant, Service Station, Electric Company, Post Office and Bank. The students will earn a paycheck and when they go on break, they can cash their checks and buy the different things they need or want. It's a wonderful trip and students really enjoy learning how a community works. Our trip is on Tuesday, January 15th.
