The education and knowledge acquired in compulsory education mark educational bases for the human being. In this way arguments and value judgments are forged so the students will be able to apply them to the rest of their life activities, providing them with tools for their future formation.
The field of social sciences does not escape this concept. Moreover, it becomes a basic tool to know the environment and the history that surrounds us. Under this premise several routes that combine the promotion of the perception of the environment in which the students live are proposed. These routes complete and complement the training materials of the classrooms.
