Class Experience

US Grade Kindergarten - 3
In Career Critters, the students are informed that wild animals and plants can manage some environmental issues. Plants and animals can help mitigate some human-induced environmental problems when they are allowed to do their jobs. In class, we will be discussing about some animals and plants, and analyze how they are important in the survival of an ecosystem. These plants and animals help humans in alleviating certain environmental issues naturally. They are necessary in maintaining the natural balance and survival of an ecosystem. After these animals and plants are introduced, students will be given a scenario in which an ecosystem has an environmental issue to resolve. The class will work as a group, and share what different brilliant ideas can be used to resolve said issues. This class touches on subject areas such as Language Arts, Science, Environmental Education, and Social Studies. This class also encourages mindfulness by being open to their peer's ideas that may not be similar to theirs. 

**Please be assured that class will occur even with only 1 learner enrolled.
