The Comparative Approach to the Study of the Americas |

Abstract: | Abstract The study of community helpers in second grade can be enriched by a unit on the location of neighborhood services. The school itself is a community service. Within a short distance of the school are located such services as a post office, a police station, a fire station, and a library. In addition to these public services, there are many small business establishments. Second-grade teachers can take advantage of these enterprises to help pupils learn the reasons for their locations. Additional benefits can be derived from this study; for instance, young children will be able to gather information from primary sources and to extract relationships from the data. |
