This interactive real-time online class introduces 1st grade social studies standards in a fun and engaging way.

Students will explore the world around them while making meaningful connections between the present and the past. Through interdisciplinary lessons, young scientists and explorers will engage in hands-on activities, creative projects, songs, and multi-sensory learning experiences.

Foundational concepts are brought to life as students ask questions, share ideas, and collaborate with their peers in a supportive and curious learning environment.
