This is the mind map which I created for Our Natural Environment Theme


Numeracy
K2SN3 - K2SN: Representing quantities of numbers with different materials, ordering, numbers, writing, finding numbers
in stories, matching numbers to pictures quantities.
Differentiation:
Emerging (1 – 5): Representing quantities from 1 - 5 using concrete materials and pictures.
That's mean Emergingstudent's are able to matching quantities numbers from 1 - 5 (they need teacher's help)
Developing (1 – 10): Representing quantities from 1 - 10 using concrete materials and pictures.
That's mean Developingstudent's are able to matching quantities numbers from 1 - 10 (they needs teacher's help in bringing)
Master (1 – 20): Representing quantities from 1 - 20 using concrete materials and pictures.
That's mean are able to Mastermatching quantities numbers from 1 - 20 (they needs teacher's help in bringing) student's
Activity: Each level has specific numbers to do this activity, for example Emerging students have box include
numbers from 1 - 5. Then they will take a number 4. After that will take and count 4 camels.
Formative assessment:
Take photos for reflection time and take feedback from the students.
Summative assessment:
Students write a number and draw quantities that s matching to a number.

Whole focus
In this theme we are going to focus in the fourth environment in this global; Desert,
jungle, ocean, polar.

1- Who lives in our human environment?
2- Which environment we are lives in?
3- How many environments in the world?
4- What animals does live in each

5- Wha does the living things needs?
6- Who live in the desert?
7- Where a place we can not see the sun?

Vedioes:
Desert, jungle, ocean, polar environments
Project
Students understand what an environment mean, and there are four different environments around the word. Students showed their understanding of the characteristics of 4 environments desert, jungle, ocean and polar through drawings in lots details. Students started the project where each group investigates and create a model of the environment. Students work in groups, and that showed how they were full engaged, interested, collaboration, communication and teamwork in the project. According to the phlosopher which I learned from my teachers in HCT cheldren learn better through hands-on the project as a reggio emelia believe that.
