Social Studies

We're learning about communities in our current unit.  Students have compared/contrasted our community of Kalona with several other communities across the US, as well as Timbuktu, a community in Africa.   We have found that all communities have certain elements (things to do for fun, homes, jobs, etc.).  It has been interesting to see which communities are like ours, and which are much different. Students also brushed up on the map skill of using scale.

Students use Venn Diagrams to compare Kalona with El Paso
