More Description

Each thematic unit integrates activities across the curriculum in English, maths, science, social studies, art, music and life skills. Many of these activities encourage co-operative learning and suggestions and patterns for display boards are provided. Culminating activities enable students to synthesise their knowledge in order to create products that can be shared beyond the classroom. Each thematic unit includes: Literature selections, planning guides, writing ideas, homework suggestions, curriculum connections, group projects, a culminating activity and a reading list. The activities are based on the following books: Mary Wore Her Red Dress and Henry Wore His Green Sneakers (adapted and illustrated by Merle Peek) and The Emperor's New Clothes (Hans Christian Andersen).
