Communities Around the World

Grade 3 · Social Studies · Our Community and Communities Around the World · Manitoba, Canada

Lesson Summary

People all over the world live in communities that are shaped by their geography, climate, and culture.

Explanation

A community in the African savanna looks very different from one in the mountains of Japan or a village in South America. The climate, land, and resources in each place affect how people build homes, grow food, and live their daily lives. Even though communities look different on the outside, people everywhere share basic needs like food, shelter, and belonging to a group.
