Part of: [Connecticut: Social studies](https://ai.page/roadmap/ct-ss.md)

Goal: Connecticut academic standards: Social studies, Grade 2

## 1. Decision-Making in our World

- [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
- [Actions and Their Consequences](https://ai.page/c/actions-and-their-consequences/index.md): Understand that actions have consequences — that what you choose to do affects both yourself and other people — and begin to think about what might happen before they act

## 2. Leadership Past and Present

- [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
- [Questioning Historical Sources](https://ai.page/c/questioning-historical-sources/index.md): Before trusting a historical source, ask: who made this, when, and why? — the answers shape how much weight the source should carry
- [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

## 3. Working Together as a Community

- [Working Well in a Group](https://ai.page/c/working-well-in-a-group/index.md): Work effectively as part of a small group — contributing their own ideas, listening to others' ideas, taking on a fair share of the work, and supporting the group to reach a shared goal
- [Community Rights and Responsibilities](https://ai.page/c/community-rights-and-responsibilities/index.md): Understand their rights and responsibilities as a member of a community — that everyone has a right to be treated with respect and to feel safe, and that with rights come responsibilities to treat others the same way

## 4. Communicate Conclusions and Take Informed Action

- [Vocabulary: making decisions and keeping safe](https://ai.page/c/vocabulary-making-decisions-and-keeping-safe/index.md): Know and use the vocabulary of making decisions and keeping safe — choice, consequence, rule, safe, fair, honest, trusted adult, and right and wrong — and understand that naming these ideas clearly helps make better choices

## 5. Evaluate Sources and Use Evidence

- [Checking Sources Against Each Other](https://ai.page/c/checking-sources-against-each-other/index.md): Corroborate: check whether multiple sources agree on the same facts — and investigate why they might not
