This unit aims to foster critical and creative thinking skills in students while exploring the theme of sustainability. Using Visible Thinking Routines, students will journey from an idea to a personal connection, exploring topics such as plastic waste, innovative design solutions, cultural diversity, and seasonal changes. Through hands-on activities such as creating artworks and sculptures, students will identify actions they can take to care for the environment and learn about the 4Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Recover).
