Course: Social Studies 2 Alt
Students continue to learn Social Studies around the big ideas or cultural universals. Students continue to learn about government and how it maintains order and protects citizens. Through these understandings, students expand their knowledge of democratic skills and how people participate and contribute to the political system. Students also explore their own family’s history and stories about distinctive individuals, achievements, tradition, and customs. Students also learn modes and limitations of communication and transportation. They study why transportation is necessary and how it affects the lives of consumers and their communities. Students expand their understanding of economic concepts by identifying producers, consumers, buyers, and sellers in their own communities. Students examine personal and community events, artifacts, photographs, and written text to describe differences between the past and present and how individuals and societies change over time. This course is designed to facilitate alternate academic learning outcomes appropriate to the instructional needs of the student, as documented in the Individualized Education Program (IEP). This course is linked to the general education curriculum; however, the student will require a different scope and sequence, adapted and modified materials.
