Pre-K Social Studies
Pre-K social studies begins with your child's own world: how people and families are alike and different, everyday routines, what everyone needs (food, clothes, and a home), the helpers in a family and a town, land and water on a simple map, and the United States and Texas flags.
For 4-year-olds. Questions are read aloud, answers are pictures to tap, sessions are short, and there is no clock. Pre-K follows the Texas Prekindergarten Guidelines, which come before the TEKS, and has no skills check yet.

How to help at home
Name the helpers you see together, like a mail carrier, a nurse, or a firefighter, and talk about what each one does. Draw a simple map of your child's room together. Sort things at the store into needs and wants.Source: Texas Education Agency, 2022 Texas Prekindergarten Guidelines, PK4 Streamlined Version, VII (PDF).
