This teacher’s guide supports a language-based Science unit for early primary classrooms, using the sixteen titles in Strong Nations Publishing’s Strong Science - Animals series.
The unit introduces early primary students to four easily recognizable animals that live in or near many communities in Canada: beaver, black-tailed deer, mallard duck, and raccoon. While learning about the animals, students will gain knowledge and skills mandated by Ministry of Education Science curricula in Canadian provinces and territories.
In addition, this teacher’s guide addresses other curriculum areas— Language Arts, Math, Social Studies, and Art—and provides information to help develop an appreciation for and understanding of Indigenous cultures.
This teacher-friendly, comprehensive teacher’s guide provides:
• lesson plans to introduce the books in the Strong Science - Animals series;
• lesson plans to address knowledge and skills common to Canadian Science curricula;
• activities to integrate the unit across the curriculum;
• activities to wrap up the unit;
• reproducible activity pages.
