Sharing The Planet: The Impact of Storytelling

An inquiry into the interdependence of human and natural worlds through: rights, responsibilities, and dignity for all.

Central Idea:

Sharing stories can influence others and their ideas.

ATL's (Approaches To Learning):

Learner Profile:

Inquirer: Students will be inquirers by asking questions that explore how ecosystems are interconnected and how human actions can affect these systems. This will foster a deeper understanding of environmental responsibility.

Communicator: Students will communicate their ideas through opinion writing to express their thoughts on the impact of storytelling and how stories shape ideas and actions. They will also explore scientific and mathematical ideas that connect to the stories and concepts of the environment (e.g., ecosystems and measurement), allowing students to express their opinions about how they can protect and care for the world.

Specified Concepts:

Reading: Students have been learning about fiction and non-fiction texts. Students have been studying closely why authors use predictable patterns and structures in stories such as: beginning, middle, and end.

Writing: Students have been learning about writing how-to books. Students have been exploring the different forms that stories can take (oral, written, visual) and examine their structure (beginning, middle, end) to understand how these elements shape how a story is told and received.
