Importance of learning social studies
Social studies offers valuable insights into history, geography, and much more. Social studies captivates students by providing them with perspectives from the past, present, and future, allowing them to understand history and navigate current events. It enables them to appreciate how previous generations have shaped their present reality. In essence, social studies opens their eyes to the vastness of life beyond their immediate surroundings.

- Evaluate information, analyze evidence, and make informed judgments about complex social, economic, and political issues
- Become active, responsible, and engaged citizens
- Comprehend global issues such as human rights, environmental sustainability, and economic disparities
