This Grade 2 Social Studies worksheet focuses on community economic choices. Grade 2 students fill in blanks about libraries, parks, roads, schools, fire stations, and hospitals as public services paid for with taxes. A matching section connects activities like borrowing books or driving to work with the right community place. Learners see how towns choose which shared services matter most when funds are limited every year.
