Land shaped life is a 3rd grade social studies skill in the Our Town's Past region of the TernQuest map — first peoples, settlers, a town over time. It is aligned to California History-Social Science Content Standards standard 3.2.2. Children work through 20 grade-tagged questions at the apply level (applying the idea), and Pip the tern offers a hint — never the answer — when they get stuck.
