Goal: Massachusetts academic standards: Social studies, Grade 1

## 1. Practice · General Practices

- [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. Civics · communities, elections, and leadership

- [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
- [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

## 3. Civics · Citizenship

- [Vocabulary: ethics and citizenship](https://ai.page/c/vocabulary-ethics-and-citizenship/index.md): Know and use the vocabulary of ethics and citizenship — bullying, cyberbullying, bystander, upstander, peer pressure, digital citizenship, rights, responsibility, and ethical — and understand the distinctions between these closely related terms
- [Makes someone a good friend](https://ai.page/c/makes-someone-a-good-friend/index.md): Understand what makes someone a good friend — being kind, honest, reliable, and including others — and recognise behaviours that are not friendly, such as being bossy, leaving people out, or saying mean things

## 4. Geography · Culture

- [The world contains many cultures, traditions](https://ai.page/c/the-world-contains-many-cultures-traditions/index.md): Understand that the world contains many cultures, traditions, and belief systems, and that learning about others' perspectives enriches our own understanding — developing genuine curiosity about and respect for cultural diversity

## 5. History · unity and diversity in the United States

- [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

## 6. Economics · Resources

- [Jobs People Do](https://ai.page/c/jobs-people-do/index.md): Different kinds of work people do; that people earn money by working; how jobs help the community; linking personal interests to possible jobs
- [Earning Money](https://ai.page/c/earning-money/index.md): Ways that children and adults earn money; the connection between work, skills and pay; that harder or more skilled work often pays more

## 7. Economics · Buying Goods and Services

- [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

## 8. Economics · Saving

- [Saving Money](https://ai.page/c/saving-money/index.md): Why people save money; piggy banks and saving jars; setting a savings goal; the idea that not spending now means having more later

## 9. Writing · Production and Distribution of Writing

- [Resolving Disagreements with Friends](https://ai.page/c/resolving-disagreements-with-friends/index.md): Resolve simple disagreements with peers by talking it through — explaining how they feel, listening to the other person's side, and finding a compromise or solution that both can accept

## 10. Writing · Research to Build and Present Knowledge

- [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

## 11. Speaking and Listening · Comprehension and Collaboration

- [Listening to Others](https://ai.page/c/listening-to-others/index.md): Listen to others when they are speaking — looking at the speaker, waiting until they finish, and showing they have heard by responding to what was said rather than just talking about their own ideas

## 12. Speaking and Listening · Presentation of Knowledge and Ideas

- [Vocabulary: understanding others](https://ai.page/c/vocabulary-understanding-others/index.md): Know and use the key vocabulary for understanding others — empathy, perspective, kind, fair, community, similar, different, and care — and understand that these words describe real habits of thinking and feeling
