Goal: Alabama academic standards: Social studies, Kindergarten

## 1. Living and Working Together in Family and Community

- [Vocabulary: working with others](https://ai.page/c/vocabulary-working-with-others/index.md): Know and use the vocabulary of working with others — cooperate, share, take turns, team, listen, agree, disagree respectfully, and include — and understand that these words describe habits that friendships and group work depend on
- [Roles in a Group](https://ai.page/c/roles-in-a-group/index.md): Understand different roles people play in groups — leader, supporter, mediator, idea-generator — and recognise that effective groups need a mix of roles, not everyone trying to be the leader
- [Similarities & Differences](https://ai.page/c/similarities-and-differences/index.md): Notice and appreciate ways that people are similar to and different from each other — including appearance, family structures, languages spoken, foods eaten, and celebrations observed — and understand that differences make communities interesting
- [Goods & Services](https://ai.page/c/goods-and-services/index.md): Some people make things (goods) and some people do things for others (services); recognising both in everyday life and understanding that both have value
- [Needs & Wants](https://ai.page/c/needs-and-wants/index.md): The difference between things we need (food, shelter, clothing) and things we want (toys, treats); that we sometimes have to choose because money is limited
- [Rules and agreements exist](https://ai.page/c/rules-and-agreements-exist/index.md): Understand why rules and agreements exist — that they help keep people safe, make things fair, and help groups work well together — and follow agreed rules willingly rather than only when being watched

## 2. History

- [Vocabulary: historical thinking](https://ai.page/c/vocabulary-historical-thinking/index.md): Know and use the vocabulary of historical thinking — source, evidence, primary source, secondary source, artefact, chronology, chronological order, BC/BCE, AD/CE, century, decade, era, period, timeline, excavation, archaeologist, interpretation, corroborate, bias, perspective — and apply these terms when discussing how we know about the past and how reliable our knowledge is

## 3. Economics

- [What Money Is](https://ai.page/c/what-money-is/index.md): What money is and why we use it; that money is exchanged for goods and services; brief history from barter to coins to digital payments
- [Buying Things](https://ai.page/c/buying-things/index.md): How buying and selling works: prices, paying for items, receiving change; the basic transaction process in shops and markets
