Summary: teaching social studies in the elementary school presents a challenge to any teacher, new or experienced. This challenge results from the unique content of the social studies and its contribution to our democratic way of living.The content of the social studies is derived from the social sciences, which investigate the actions of human beings. In teaching social studies, teachers attempt to help children understand the actions of human beings (from the earliest times to the present) to prepare the children to enter their society with sufficient knowledge to enable them to operate effectively within it. Our democratic form of government requires that its citizens be knowledgeable about democracy as well as the other ideologies. The responsibility of imparting this knowledge rests heavily with the social studies.
