About My Community
Second grade Social Studies are about "my community" in a very
broad sense because they relate to a wide range of subjects such
as geography, history, civics and government, and more. Students
learn about landforms, map skills, our country's government, good
citizenship, people and their work, family heritage, cultural events
in their community.....
