Welcome to the Social Studies Page

We are beginning our study of California Geography

In third grade, Social Studies is part of our "Wheel." That means each of the four 3rd grade teachers is specializing in one topic. Each of our classes visits another teacher for the last hour of the day and rotates in two-week blocks. Mrs. Kivett teaches science, Mrs. Shemmer teaches Social Studies, Ms. Martinez takes care of Health, and Mr. Olsson handles technology.
