Teacher's Guide
Purpose
Students further develop research and planning skills by examining the environment's resilience. First, they research the causes of extinction and learn about an endangered species of their choice. They then create a recovery plan for their species. Students also reflect and journal about human resilience and perserverance, including their own. They then think of ways to celebrate the achievements of the projects they have completed in this or other units.
