Goal: Mississippi academic standards: Social studies, Grade 6

## 1. Grade 6 · Formulate an understanding of the cultural regions of the world:<ul><li>Western Europe</li><li>Eastern Europe</li><li>North America</li><li>Latin America</li><li>South Asia</li><li>East Asia

- [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

## 2. Grade 6 · Explain the geographic patterns of economic interactions.

- [Global Trade](https://ai.page/c/global-trade/index.md): Why countries trade with each other; imports and exports; how goods travel around the world; that different countries use different currencies

## 3. Grade 6 · Describe how civil rights and citizenship roles vary based on the culture and government of various nation-states.

- [Global Citizenship](https://ai.page/c/global-citizenship/index.md): Understand what it means to be a citizen in an interconnected world where decisions in one place affect people elsewhere; explore global issues (climate justice, forced migration, global health, poverty) through an empathy lens, distinguishing facts from value judgements; engage with the ethical tension between obligations to those close to us and obligations to distant strangers; introduce evidence-based giving and effective altruism as one framework for thinking about global responsibility; develop a personal, reasoned stance on global citizenship that acknowledges complexity
- [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

## 4. Grade 6 · Analyze the rights and responsibilities of American citizenship

- [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

## 5. Grade 6 · Examine the ways governments are organized.

- [Roman Republic and Empire](https://ai.page/c/roman-republic-and-empire/index.md): Explain how Rome was first governed as a republic — with elected consuls, a powerful Senate, and a distinction between patricians and plebeians — before becoming an empire ruled by emperors like Augustus (who brought peace, the Pax Romana) and Nero, and compare republican government with Athenian direct democracy
