$19.99

Introduce your child to the vital topic of environmental change with our invigorating Social Studies Unit – Environments Change, designed for a three-week exploration of the environment. This hands-on, literature-based homeschool curriculum empowers your student to understand and assess the impact of human actions on the Earth's ecosystems. By engaging in scientific experiments and creative storytelling, your child will develop a meaningful appreciation for nature, become a custodian of conservation, and sharpen their critical thinking abilities.

Key Features:


  • Creative Learning: Students will craft a "Movie in a Box" diorama to represent the urbanization process, encouraging an artistic expression of environmental concepts.
  • Critical Thinking: Through creating timelines after reading "A River Ran Wild", your child will analyze the historical impact of human activity on natural waterways.
  • Hands-On Learning: Building mini erupting volcanoes enables students to discover geological processes in an interactive manner.
  • Interdisciplinary Connections: Backyard "Native American" adventures combine history and science, showing how traditional practices can inform sustainable living.

This curriculum not only covers scientific principles, such as the water cycle and heat transfer, through experiential activities like pollution experiments and habitat creation but also integrates cultural awareness and civic responsibility as students engage in community initiatives like clean-ups and tree-planting. Equip your family with a curriculum that brings education alive.

This item includes free online access to Beyond the Page Online for 18 months. This includes Learning Gates, Portfolio and any curriculum or student activity pages that you have purchased.
