Join Miss Mackenzie in learning Social Studies and Geography curriculum while also having fun! Learners will learn various Social Studies and Geography standards through interactive slides and activities. All of the topics covered in these courses are based off of various state standards for first grade social studies. Multiple topics covered in this class are based on Social Studies in the United States. However, I recognize that many Outschool learners are from all over the world and they are ALL welcome in my class! This ongoing class will be great for an advanced kindergartener, current first grader, or second grader that could use some review! Each week will cover different standards:

*Your learner can join any time without feeling left out or behind :) 

Each class will include a slide show with interactive games and activities, as well as a drawing activity that the learner can complete and share at the end of class. Each class will also encourage learners to interact with each other and discuss the topics. Learners will have fun so that they are more likely to retain the information learned!

There is no prior experience or knowledge needed.
