SOS02: Social Studies

This course is designed for Grade 2 students to teach social studies by addressing two important aspects of social studies such as (i) heritage and identity: changing family and community traditions and (ii) people and environments: global communities. In heritage and identity, students compare some significant traditions and celebrations among diverse groups and at different times, and identify some of the reasons for changes in these traditions/celebrations; use the social studies inquiry process to investigate some of the past and present traditions and celebrations within their own family and the communities to which they belong; describe some of the major groups in their community, including different types of families, and some of the ways in which traditions and heritage are passed on by such groups.
In people and environments, students describe some similarities and differences in the ways in which people in two or more communities in different parts of the world meet their needs and have adapted to the location, climate, and physical features of their regions; use the social studies inquiry process to investigate aspects of the interrelationship between the natural environment, including the climate, of selected communities and the ways in which people in those communities live; identify and locate various physical features and selected communities around the world, and describe some aspects of people’s ways of life in those communities.
