Science & Social Studies

Howell Public Schools uses the Social Studies Alive! curriculum in second grade to teach students about their community.  Students will learn about the community of Howell and take a walking field trip around Howell in the spring.  We will focus on where in the world Howell is located--on what hemisphere, continent, country, and state!  It's going to be a fun adventure!
