Drawing on interview data, the authors describe K-3 students'
knowledge and thinking about basic aspects of the social world that
are addressed in the elementary social studies curriculum. The
interviews focused on human activities relating to nine cultural
universals that are commonly addressed in the elementary social
studies curriculum: food, clothing, shelter, communication,
transportation, family living, childhood, money, and government.
This volume synthesizes findings from the research and discusses
their implications for curriculum and instruction in early social
studies.
"Children's Thinking About Cultural Universals" significantly
expands the knowledge base on developments in children's social
knowledge and thinking and, in addition, provides a wealth of
information to inform social studies educators' and curriculum
developers' efforts to match instruction to students' prior
knowledge, both by building on already developed valid knowledge
and by addressing common misconceptions. It represents a quantum
leap in the availability of information on the trajectories of
children's knowledge about common topics in primary elementary
social studies education.
