Social Studies
Using local historic sites, historical societies, and museums, third graders
learn about the history of Massachusetts from the time of the arrival of the
Pilgrims and their first encounter with the Indians. They also learn the history
of their own cities and towns and about famous people and events in
Massachusetts’ history. In addition, they read biographies of prominent
Massachusetts people in science, technology, the arts, business, education, or
political leadership in order to learn how they contributed to Massachusetts
history.
