How We Share the Planet




The first grade IB Planner Theme for the remainder of the school year is “How We Share the Planet.” The central idea is that clean water is an essential resource with limited availability. Students will focus on why it is important to care for the earth’s water. Our specific IB inquiries for this planner are into: (1) the importance of water to humans and ecosystems; (2) the conservation, usage, and pollution of water; and (3) the scarcity of clean water in many parts of the world.

Our activities in this Planner will broaden your child’s awareness of the rights and responsibilities in sharing finite resources with other people and with other living things
