Social Studies
Our Community

Our Classroom Community
works together to create.
We have finished up our unit on Life Cycles and Organisms.  We are beginning our first Social Studies unit, Our Community.  We will learn that there are many different types of communities but that a community  is a group of people that have something in common, work together, have similar needs, or live in the same location.  As a class we will be exploring and identifying what makes Underhill-Jericho a special community as well as identifying other communities, such as our family, school, scouts,  that we may be a part of and the importance of different roles within a community.  We will also learn beginning map skills.  Please follow this link for more information about this unit.
