Hello, I created a link (located to the right of this post) titled Social Studies. When you click on it, it should open open to Michigan Open Book Project. Scroll down to the first grade “Families and School”. Then click on chapter 3 “Where Are We?”. That is one of my favorite S.S.’s unit to teach. I’m sad to be missing out on it. Before they read, ask them the questions in the “Questions to Guide Inquiry” and then talk about the meaning of the words in the “Words To Introduce Section”. There is a part where they would have built a model of our classroom and then drawn the birds eye view (aerial perspective) of it. Instead have them pick a room in your house to do this project with and if you don’t have the supplies to have them do it, then just have them draw the map of it. Include a map key that shows the symbols and what they represent. For example, a small square might represent couches, a rectangle might represent a table or bed. Don’t do the project until that section has been read. If this goes on longer than expected, have them then read Chapter 2-What Stories are Part of Our Past, Present, and Future. Thank you!

Please let me know if the the link does not work…it’s my first time doing one :0
