1 Bozeman Public Schools Social Studies Curriculum Fifth Grade Overarching Essential Question: Who am I, how did I get here, and how will I proceed as an informed and conscientious (productive) citizen of our world? Essential Understandings: By the end of Fifth grade all students know that historical knowledge is ascertained through seeking out and analyzing primary and secondary documents, including artifacts, imagery and oral histories. Students begin to understand that change in American history was driven by factors such as technological advances, capitalism, nationalism, the struggle for freedom, migration and immigration, geographic expansion, innovation. Students know that continuity in American history is maintained by consensus, rule of law, traditions, and social institutions. Students understand that interpretations vary by perspective and by thoroughness of document analysis. Essential Skills: Throughout Fifth grade students use a variety of tools, including technology to access, synthesize and evaluate information and communicate with others within many contexts and situations. Content Standards: The content standards, history, civics, geography, economics and culture/diversity, represent five major strands within the overarching umbrella of social studies. These five strands focus on the central theme of Biographies and Documents in American History. Process Standards: Process standards are embedded within the content standards of history, civics, geography, history, economics and culture/diversity. These standards reflect student understanding of how to access, synthesize, and evaluate information to communicate and apply social studies knowledge to real world situations. (H) History: Students demonstrate an understanding of the effects of time, continuity, and change on historical and future perspectives and relationships. Essential Questions (arranged by Essential Learning Expectation): Historical Knowledge: How is the past revealed, interpreted and understood? What makes some historical interpretations better than others? Relevance: How and why is the past relevant to me, my community, my nation and our world? Can an individual change history or is history inevitable? (Why?) Conflict/Cooperation: How do conflict and cooperation shape (benefit/destroy) societies? In historical interactions, why do conflicts arise and how are they resolved? Perspective: Whose story is it and how and why is it being told? Change/Continuity: Which factor(s) in history caused the most significant change and why? Bozeman Public Schools Social Studies Standards, Grade 5 Page 1 of 8

2 (H) Essential Learning Expectation - Historical Knowledge Biographies and Documents in American History: Historical knowledge is ascertained through seeking out and analyzing primary and secondary documents, including artifacts, imagery and oral histories. Interpretations vary by perspective and by thoroughness of document analysis. HH.1.0 Students develop evidence-based speculations about past events through examining primary and secondary sources. HH.1.1 Students recognize that a primary source is an artifact, a document, a recording or other source of information created at the time under study by someone with direct personal knowledge of the events being described. A primary source is an original source of the information being discussed. HH.1.2 Students recognize that a secondary source is a document or recording that discusses or relates information originally presented elsewhere. Secondary sources interpret original information. HH.1.3 Students distinguish between primary and secondary sources. HH.1.4 Students recognize that historians consider a variety of information, including the type of document, how it was created, author, purpose, date created and unique physical characteristics, in order to understand primary and secondary source documents. HH.1.5 Students describe the kinds of information historians consider and the questions they ask when studying primary and secondary sources. HH.1.6 Students differentiate between historical fact and historical interpretation. HH.1.7 Students distinguish between unsupported expressions of opinion and informed hypotheses grounded in historical evidence. HH.1.8 Students develop hypotheses about the past through studying primary and secondary sources. Example: Students form a hypothesis through analyzing a historical photograph.
