Sociology · 4–6 years
Groups we belong to
People are part of groups, such as a family, a class or a team. Groups connect people, even when each person remains different.
Shared rules
Rules are shared agreements about what people do in a place or group. They make actions easier to predict and help people live, play and learn together.
Cooperation
Cooperation means people coordinate their actions to do something together. They can share jobs, listen and adjust their plans so the group can move forward.
Being alike and different
People in the same group can share some things and differ in others. Learning this helps a child notice identity, belonging and respectful curiosity without sorting people into fixed boxes.
People who help a community
Notice the many jobs and acts of care that help people live together.
We depend on care
Understand that everyone needs care sometimes, and everyone can offer some care.
We learn from other people
See how people pass on words, skills, habits, and ways of doing things.
One event, different viewpoints
Learn that people can notice and describe the same moment in different ways.
Different kinds of families
Families can be made in many ways. What matters is the relationships between the people who share family life.
Traditions we share
Songs, foods, stories and celebrations can carry meaning from one generation to another. Traditions may be shared by a family, a neighbourhood or a wider culture.
Fair does not always mean the same
Fairness means considering what people need, not only giving everyone an identical share. Young children meet this idea when people need different kinds of help or space.
Homes and neighbourhoods
Where people live affects what they see, use and do together. A neighbourhood is not only its buildings; it is also the paths, places and relationships around them.
The roles we play
One person can act in different ways in different places.
Signs tell us things
Pictures, sounds and gestures can carry shared meanings.
Public and private spaces
Some places and actions are for everyone; others need permission or quiet.
Buying and exchanging
People exchange things or money to get what they need or want.
Friendship grows
Friendship is a relationship that grows through attention, trust and shared time.
Solving disagreements
A disagreement is a moment when people want different things; talking can help them find a safe next step.
Making a group decision
A group decision is a choice made after people share ideas and find out what the group wants.
Communities change
A community can keep some familiar things while its people, places and ways of doing things change.
