Introduction
Introducing Planet Earth! This unit is all about the home we allshare. Students will gain perspective about Earth as a whole planet aswell as specific entities within the Earth. This unit is partial, as it willfocus mainly on rocks, water and air as features of the Earth. Furthercurriculum objectives about the features of the Earth from space,mapping, and soil should be explored outside of this unit. The underlying theme and integrative principle for the unit is afocus on the effects pollution and conservation have on Earth and onthe creatures(including humans) sharing its life space. Essentialunderstandings about the relationship between people and MotherEarth will be critical and common throughout teaching of the morespecialized objectives.In grade one, the main focus is for students to begin truly lookingaround at the amazing world surrounding them and to becomeconnected to, appreciative of, interested in, and curious about itsphenomenon. Though this unit focuses primarily on science as a curricularmatch-up, the unit integrates all other subject areas regularly. Ibelieve it impossible to teach subjects in isolation! The students willgain a well-roundedknowledge of the Earth that is mostly fact based,but also traditionally, emotionally, and action based.
