Goal: Minnesota academic standards: Social studies, Grade 4

## 1. Grade 4: Geography of North America

- [How the Economy Works](https://ai.page/c/how-the-economy-works/index.md): What an economy is; producers and consumers; supply and demand; why prices change; the basics of how markets work

## 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
- [Evidence Versus Interpretation](https://ai.page/c/evidence-versus-interpretation/index.md): Distinguish between historical evidence and historical interpretation — evidence is what survived, interpretation is the argument a historian builds from it, and the same evidence can support different arguments

## 3. Citizenship and Government

- [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
