====Social Studies define a society individually and collectively. It is the fabric that defines who we are, where we have been, and where we are going. An understanding of history provides students with a compass to navigate what has been and what is to come. In essence, social studies encompasses all human endeavors and provides a rationale for why societies and individuals behave in the manner they do. Understanding this story allows my students to become active civic participants in a diverse democratic society undergoing rapid technological, social and economic transitions. ==== ==== I am trying to prepare students with an understanding of the world that surrounds them. Understanding that events occurring in history are predicated on previous historical events is crucial to our development as a society and as a culture. One event precipitates another and these events, collectively, become the fabric of our world. ====
