Family, rules, and maps: Kindergarten social studies is about helping students make sense of the world immediately around them. These lessons follow the C3 Framework's early-grade arc — describing the roles and responsibilities of people in authority, explaining why rules exist in different settings, and constructing simple maps of familiar places.

Because the topics live so close to students' daily lives, discussion carries these lessons. Each slide deck pairs friendly visuals with talk prompts: Who helps us at school? What would recess look like with no rules? What is between our classroom and the library? You present, and students connect the ideas to their own experience.

All three kindergarten social studies lessons are free to view and fully editable in Chalkie. Rename the community helpers to match your school, drop in a map of your own neighborhood, or add a slide for a class discussion — then present straight from the browser.
