Social Studies

Since the start of the year we have been focusing on the topic of communities in social studies.  Our 1st graders learned about families, rules, citizenship, and community helpers.  Our children wrote about what they want to be when they grow up, and their projects are displayed in the hallway for you to see during conferences.  

Two weeks ago we had the privilege of meeting and learning about some of our very own Quakertown community helpers.  The Quakertown firefighters came to QE to discuss fire safety.  







  

After Halloween we will conclude our unit on communities by discussing the three different types of communities: urban, rural, and suburban.  Then we will begin our first science unit of the year, weather!
