A multi-day lesson designed to integrate Geography and Literacy in an integrated humanities, history, or English setting. 

 This lesson will allow students to analyze the physical and ecological processes which shape the Earth’s surface including the nature and location of weather phenomena and what causes the seasons and climate.  Students will also use a decision-making model.  Teachers will need to make copies of all the Google forms and documents.

This lesson takes students through the examination of the poem Remember and its use of figurative language to set the stage for considering how the physical world around us has changed in the past 50 years. Students research a specific local plant, animal, or element of weather and how it has changed over time, and then use Twine to represent their research in a digital story. This lesson culminates with the discussion of whether or not we are doing a good job of listening to Virginia’s natural elements over the past 50 years. This lesson was created through a partnership between CodeVA and the Virginia Tribal Education Consortium (VTEC). 

Use this resource to help students explore the human experience across time and place, give voice to diverse perspectives found in art, and collaboratively reimagine a museum that presents a new story centered around our shared human interactions.
