I like the packet but would love just a social studies and science sub work. I also would like more social studies work than the one activity.

Hi Jonquil! Thanks for your purchase. I do have departmentalized sets that include just science and social studies. This one that you purchased does contain all subjects and the activities are outlined just like the preview and description (the description states that there is just the one lesson for each of those subjects).
If you’d like, you can check out just the science and social studies ones below. These include 5 lessons for each subject:
