Students wrote about how their group planned to survive off of only natural resources. Then they presented their ideas to the class and we chose a winning group. Then we learned about how long ago Indigenous groups survived off of natural resources and this involved paying a lot of attention to the seasons to know when to do certain things.

Students created "powerful questions" they have about the seasons that they would like to figure out the answer to in this unit.

Students decorated cover of this unit journal with images of things that are important to them in each season. They looked at the definition of the seasonal round that the unit provides and read it carefully. They highlighted the words they didn't know and found the meaning of those words.
