Part of: [Ohio: Social studies](https://ai.page/roadmap/oh-ss.md)

Goal: Ohio academic standards: Social studies, Grade 4

## 1. Economics

- [Banks & Saving](https://ai.page/c/banks-and-saving/index.md): What banks do and why people use them; bank accounts as safe places for money; that savings in a bank can earn interest; children's savings accounts
- [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

## 3. Historical Thinking

- [Financial Planning](https://ai.page/c/financial-planning/index.md): Setting longer-term financial goals; planning and prioritising spending; how saving regularly adds up over time; the value of thinking ahead with money
- [Checking Sources Against Each Other](https://ai.page/c/checking-sources-against-each-other/index.md): Corroborate: check whether multiple sources agree on the same facts — and investigate why they might not
- [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
- [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
- [Stop, Think, Then Choose](https://ai.page/c/stop-think-then-choose/index.md): Use a simple decision-making process when faced with a choice — stopping to think, identifying the options, considering the consequences of each option, and then choosing — rather than acting impulsively
- [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
