Goal: Nebraska academic standards: Social studies, Grade 3

## 1. History · Develop historical inquiry and research skills.

- [Understanding People in Their Own Time](https://ai.page/c/understanding-people-in-their-own-time/index.md): Understand that people in the past saw the world very differently from us — judge their actions by the context they lived in, not only by today's values
- [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

## 2. History · Describe and explain multiple perspectives of events within a community.

- [Different Accounts of the Same Event](https://ai.page/c/different-accounts-of-the-same-event/index.md): Recognise that different people can give different accounts of the same event — and that both can be genuine while still disagreeing
- [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

## 3. Geography · Compare the characteristics of places and regions.

- [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

## 4. Economics · Describe how the local community trades with other communities.

- [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

## 5. Economics · Explain that markets are places where buyers and sellers exchange goods and services.

- [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

## 6. Economics · Evaluate choices and consequences for spending and saving.

- [Budgeting Pocket Money](https://ai.page/c/budgeting-pocket-money/index.md): What a budget is; planning how to spend a fixed amount of pocket money or allowance; making trade-offs between different things you want to buy

## 7. Economics · Explain that people choose and decide what services they ask their local and state government to provide and pay for.

- [Taxes & Public Services](https://ai.page/c/taxes-and-public-services/index.md): What taxes are and why people pay them; how taxes fund schools, hospitals, roads, and emergency services; that governments decide how to spend tax money

## 8. Civics · Describe the impact of individual and group decisions at the community level.

- [Your Impact on Others](https://ai.page/c/your-impact-on-others/index.md): Reflect on how your behaviour lands on others — consider not just what you intended but what the actual impact was on the other person
- [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
