Resource Overview

In this fun and hands-on community lesson for young learners, students explore the different places that make up a town – like schools, parks, and stores. They work together to build a 3-D model of an imaginary town and learn how communities grow and change when more people move in.

Use this video alongside the Our Town lesson plan to introduce basic social studies and teamwork skills. For more details on this lesson, click here.
