The Importance of Environments Unit Plan

12 x lessons | Suitable for years: 4

This Geography unit addresses the importance of environments to animals and people and the ways in which they can be protected.

It consists of 11 lessons of approximately 60 minutes duration.

I love your resources for units. I was wondering if you could make a unit for Geography that covers Years 4 & 5 as I have a split class with these grade levels. I see that your units cover 3 & 4 or 5 & 6 but not in between. Would you consider making a unit to cover the Australian standards in Geography that could be taught to a whole class with these year levels? Suzanne
