1 Standard K-1: The student will demonstrate an understanding of the way families live and work together now and the way they lived and worked together in the past. K-1.1 Compare the daily lives of children and their families in the United States in the past with the daily lives of children and their families today. (H, E) Taxonomy Level: A 2 Understand / Factual Knowledge Previous/future knowledge: This is the student s first introduction to present and past daily lives. Students will explore this concept further (1-1.1) when they summarize the characteristics that contribute to personal identity, including physical growth, the development of individual interests, and family changes over time and when (1-1.4) they compare the daily life of families across the world including the roles of men, women, and children; typical food, clothes, and style of homes; and the ways the families earn their living. It is essential for students to know that a family is defined as a group of two or more people living together from whom they receive love and support that are usually related by birth, marriage or adoption. Students should investigate family history for at least two generations, identifying various members and their connections. It is also essential for students to gather information about families of today and throughout history through photos, elderly individuals, and family or community stories. It is not essential for students to compare families in the United States with families in other parts of the world. Students do not need to know their own family histories beyond two generations. Appropriate assessment requires students to compare the daily lives of families today with the daily lives of families throughout history; therefore, the primary focus of assessment should be on making general comparisons between the daily lives of families today with the daily lives of families throughout time. However, appropriate assessments should also require students to identify families of today and families throughout history; exemplify families that would be found in different time periods, and classify daily lives by time period.

2 Standard K-1: The student will demonstrate an understanding of the way families live and work together now and the way they lived and worked together in the past. K-1.2 Explain how changes in modes of communication and transportation have changed the way that families live and work, including and the telephone as opposed to letters and messengers for communication and the automobile as opposed to the horse for transportation. (H, G) Taxonomy Level: B 2 Understand /Conceptual Knowledge Previous/future knowledge: This is the student s first introduction to communication and transportation. This concept will be explored further when students illustrate different elements of community life, including the structure of schools; typical jobs; the interdependence of family, school, and the community; and the common methods of transportation and communication (1-1.5). In third grade (3-1.2) students will interpret thematic maps of South Carolina places and regions that show how and where people live, work, and use land and transportation when they investigate various elements of a community including transportation and communication systems. It is essential for students to know examples of different historical communication systems, such as runners, "talking drums", smoke signals, the pony express and the telegraph. In addition, students should understand communication systems of today such as telephones, , fax, and satellite systems. It is essential for students to know that transportation means to travel from one place to another. Students should be able to explain that there are a variety of transportation methods that have allowed people to get from one place to another. Students should be able to distinguish between water, air, and land transportation. Students should know examples of transportation systems throughout history such as horseback, bicycles, railroads, ships and ferries. As well, students should understand transportation systems of today such as automobiles, airplanes, and helicopters. It is not essential for students to know how different forms of transportation operate or the technical background of communication systems. Students do not need to know who invented different forms of communication or transportation systems. Appropriate assessment requires students to explain changes in transportation and communication over time; therefore, the primary focus of assessment should be to construct cause and effect models of the various ways that transportation and communication have changed. However, appropriate assessments should also require students to recall the basic definitions of both transportation and communication and to also exemplify the ways that transportation and communication has impacted life throughout history and continues to impact life today.

The golden rule, treat others as we would like to be treated, generally is an excellent example of an informal rule that guides our behavior. Students should know that they demonstrate good sportsmanship when they show respect for themselves, their teammates, and their opponents. It is not essential for students to know specific state and national governmental laws or specific rules of games. Appropriate assessment requires students to explain the purposes of rules and laws; therefore, the primary focus of assessment should be to construct cause and effect models of the various ways that rules and laws affect behavior.

Examples of these figures include teachers, parents, principals, and other authority figures.
