Sun and Spoon
De Ewing
This unit is designed to be implemented over a seven-day period. Students
should be somewhat familiar with the roles or jobs before the actual lessons
begin. A launch activity initiates the unit, followed by five days of lessons
which are concluded by a closure activity. Modifications are suggested for
those children with special needs. A bibliography is included, listing books
dealing with this theme on a second grade reading level as well as a fourth grade
reading level. Competencies from the North Carolina State Curriculum are addressed at the third
grade level for English/Language Arts and Healthful Living. Suggestions are also
given for Social Studies extensions.
