Goal: North Carolina academic standards: Social studies, Grade 6

## 1. History · Understand the development of civilizations and societies from various perspectives.

- [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. Economics · Understand the economic activities of civilizations prior to 1400.

- [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

## 3. Civics and Government · Understand the purpose of government and authority.

- [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

## 4. Behavioral Sciences · Understand ways in which culture influences civilizations.

- [Culture and Experience Shape Emotions](https://ai.page/c/culture-and-experience-shape-emotions/index.md): Understand that emotional responses are shaped by personal experiences, culture, and context — the same situation triggers different emotions in different people because of their backgrounds and past experiences

## 5. Inquiry

- [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
