Sharing the Planet - Unpacking the Central Idea

 As we have started our new unit on Sharing the Planet, we looked at the central idea and lines of inquiry and checked the big words/phrases in them.

Centra Idea: 

Our actions affect the Earth's resources and people.

Lines of Inquiry

* limited availability of the Earth's resources

* personal choices that help the environment

Together, we unpacked the meanings of these challenging phrases by looking at different resources online.





After unpacking challenging phrases, we paraphrased the central idea and present it in a simpler way.

Things that we do can hurt anything from nature and us.

- Mia


Our actions can hurt the Earth.

- Ren


Our moves make the Earth’s supplies less.

- Koichi


Hurting the planet is not good for our Earth.

- Eric
