Lesson Description:
INTRODUCTION
This thematic unit is on Protecting the Environment. It will incorporate reading, writing, math, and music. It can be modified for 1st and 2nd grade, but it was developed for 3rd grade.
The main objective is to help students understand the importance of taking care of our environment. The objective will be met by setting up a math activity that allows students to have hands-on experience in
collecting data, creating a graph, drawing conclusions from data, formulating questions, and solving problems using a graph. The purpose of this lesson is to determine students' prior knowledge about graphs and
recycling and to construct, read, and interpret a display of data to make valid predictions.
