Animals and Creatures that Help Us
Natural Science
Understanding systems and processes in nature
Key Knowledge
:
Interdependence in ecosystems (e.g., air, water, soil, plants)
How natural systems support human needs
The importance of observation and evidence in discovery
Skills
:
Observing and questioning
Predicting and experimenting
Recording data and drawing conclusions
Values:
Curiosity about the natural world
Respect for living and non-living systems
Responsibility for sustainable use of resources
Inquiry-Based Activities:
Explore: “How do we depend on natural systems for survival?”
Conduct a mini investigation (e.g., observe plant growth under different conditions).
Keep an inquiry journal — record questions, predictions, and observations.
Social Science
Understanding how people interact with the environment and each othe
Key Knowledge
:
Communities use resources differently

Reflect: “What problem did my design solve?”
Inquiry Process
Ask: Learners form their own questions
Explore: Investigate, observe, research, and test
Construct: Build new understanding from evidence
Discuss: Share findings and reflect as a group
Apply: Use learning to create solutions or explain real-world connections
Assessment Opportunities
Observation checklist (participation, questioning, collaboration)
Inquiry journal (recording evidence and reflection)
Group project (integration of science, social, and tech outcomes)
Self-reflection (“What did I learn through inquiry?”)
Values and Outcomes
Curiosity & Critical Thinking
Collaboration & Communication
Responsibility & Sustainability
Respect for Knowledge and Discovery
