Me on the Map: 2P Learns About Home, Philadelphia, and More in Social Studies

In social studies, Peale and Julia's second grade class has been keeping busy with their "Me on the Map" unit. They started small, drawing pictures of their bedrooms, then worked their way up to a bigger geographical picture, looking at their homes on Google Earth and studying the city of Philadelphia.

On Friday morning, the students of 2P shared some of their research during the Lower School assembly. Speaking in pairs, every student highlighted a Philadelphia landmark and what they like best about it, from the Liberty Bell and Museum of Art to the zoo and sports stadiums.

Next up they will continue to look at the bigger picture by learning about the United States and its three branches of government.
