There is a César E. Chávez theme for third grade that teaches students about his relationship with immigrants and his work as a civil rights leader. The main Standards that it meets are:

Standard 3.1 Students describe the physical and human geography and use maps, tables, graphs, photographs, and charts to organize information about people, places, and environments in a spatial context.

Standard 3.4 Students understand the role of rules and laws in our daily lives and the basic structure of the U.S. Government.

Standard 3.5 Students demonstrate basic economic reasoning skills and an understanding of the economy of the local region.
