Social Studies Lesson - Local Government, Grade 1

  • Activity 1 / Local Government Departments

  • Activity 2 / Mayors and Governors Worksheet

    Use this worksheet to teach your kids some more about the people in charge in your country. First, ask your little ones if they can tell you your mayor’s name, or the name of the governor of your state. A mayor is the leader of a city, and a governor is the leader of a state. Now, help your kids read the descriptions out loud, and check whether the words are describing a mayor or a governor.

  • Activity 3 / Local Government Departments Worksheet

    There are many departments in both the city and state governments. The state government in charge of all matters concerning the state, while the city government takes matters of the city into its hands. This means that the city government is more or less under the state government. And, each department has a special job. Ask your kids if they know some local government departments and what they do there. Then, look at the picture with them and help them check the box next to the correct department.

Such a great app!
This was a really fun way to get my kids to practice their math. I usually struggle to get them into it and Kids Academy makes it easy.

So engaging
We love how we can focus on math with this app. It is engaging and we love how we are able to adjust and tailor the levels according to our son’s knowledge and skill levels!

Daughter's favorite
Still a top favorite for our 7 year old. She loves earning her stars as she learns to trace letters and numbers. Coloring and the sounds are engaging and are on target for her age group and being Pre K.
