Goal: West Virginia academic standards: Social studies, Kindergarten

## 1. 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
- [Evidence from the Past](https://ai.page/c/evidence-from-the-past/index.md): Understand that everything we know about the past comes from evidence — objects, buildings, pictures, documents, and stories that have survived

## 2. Economics

- [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
- [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

## 3. Civics

- [Roles in a Group](https://ai.page/c/roles-in-a-group/index.md): Understand different roles people play in groups — leader, supporter, mediator, idea-generator — and recognise that effective groups need a mix of roles, not everyone trying to be the leader
- [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
- [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
