Global Explorers: North America Unit Studies
First, you’ll begin your journey through North America with a short introductory unit on world geography. You’ll meet Robert Bateman, begin your very own nature journal, start learning about animal classification, and consider the importance of names, using Alma Flor Ada’s book My Name is Maria Isabel as a guide. You’ll learn how to draw a compass rose and research the meaning and etymology of your name before completing your very own name painting.
Then you’re off to Canada, where you’ll meet Ted Harrison and learn about landscape painting; explore printmaking with Kenojuak Ashevak; bake bannock bread in Cooking Class; and discuss the principles of learning while reading Nicola I. Campbell’s book Shi-shi-etko and Neekna and Chemai by Jeannette Armstrong. Your family will investigate animal adaptations and begin to explore the world’s biomes, starting with Canada’s Great Bear Rain Forest.
In Mexico you’ll explore son jarocho music with the Villalobos Brothers, meet Frida Kahlo and practice painting self-portraits, learn how to make arroz con leche, discuss food chains, learn about the desert ecosystem, make a piñata, and much more!
And that’s just to start! With a total of 14 unit studies, your family will have all the support and resources you need to explore North America.
