Goal: Wisconsin academic standards: Social studies, Kindergarten

## 1. Political Science · Asserting and Reaffirming of Human Rights

- [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

## 2. Political Science · Values & Principles of American Constitutional Democracy

- [Rules and agreements exist](https://ai.page/c/rules-and-agreements-exist/index.md): Understand why rules and agreements exist — that they help keep people safe, make things fair, and help groups work well together — and follow agreed rules willingly rather than only when being watched

## 3. History · Cause

- [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

## 4. Economics · Specialization, Trade, and Interdependence

- [Jobs People Do](https://ai.page/c/jobs-people-do/index.md): Different kinds of work people do; that people earn money by working; how jobs help the community; linking personal interests to possible jobs

## 5. Economics · Role of Government

- [Goods & Services](https://ai.page/c/goods-and-services/index.md): Some people make things (goods) and some people do things for others (services); recognising both in everyday life and understanding that both have value

## 6. Economics · Money

- [What Money Is](https://ai.page/c/what-money-is/index.md): What money is and why we use it; that money is exchanged for goods and services; brief history from barter to coins to digital payments
- [Saving Money](https://ai.page/c/saving-money/index.md): Why people save money; piggy banks and saving jars; setting a savings goal; the idea that not spending now means having more later

## 7. Economics · Firm/Business Behavior and Costs of Production

- [Costs & Revenue](https://ai.page/c/costs-and-revenue/index.md): It costs money to make things (costs/expenses); you earn money by selling them (revenue); if revenue is more than costs, that's profit; if costs are more, that's a loss

## 8. Economics · Supply, Demand, and Competition

- [Buying Things](https://ai.page/c/buying-things/index.md): How buying and selling works: prices, paying for items, receiving change; the basic transaction process in shops and markets

## 9. Economics · Consumers, Producers, and Markets

- [Buyers & Sellers](https://ai.page/c/buyers-and-sellers/index.md): When someone makes or has something, they can sell it; when someone wants something, they can buy it; introduction to the concept of exchange and transactions

## 10. Economics · Choices and Decision-Making

- [Vocabulary: making decisions and keeping safe](https://ai.page/c/vocabulary-making-decisions-and-keeping-safe/index.md): Know and use the vocabulary of making decisions and keeping safe — choice, consequence, rule, safe, fair, honest, trusted adult, and right and wrong — and understand that naming these ideas clearly helps make better choices
- [Needs & Wants](https://ai.page/c/needs-and-wants/index.md): The difference between things we need (food, shelter, clothing) and things we want (toys, treats); that we sometimes have to choose because money is limited

## 11. Behavioral Sciences · Personal identity and empathy

- [Naming Basic Emotions](https://ai.page/c/naming-basic-emotions/index.md): Name and recognise basic emotions — happy, sad, angry, scared, excited, and surprised — in themselves and in others by looking at facial expressions and body language

## 12. Behavioral Sciences · Individual cognition, perception, and behavior

- [Vocabulary: self](https://ai.page/c/vocabulary-self/index.md): Know and use the vocabulary of self-reflection — self-awareness, reflect, pattern, trigger, assumption, impact, perspective, and notice — and understand that having precise words for these inner experiences makes them easier to understand and talk about
