Description
If you are purchasing for a school, co-op or charter school please use this listing to purchase and not the individual family listing. This purchase includes rights for your school to use this curriculum in one classroom (or multiple classrooms) and over an unlimited amount of years.
Theme: Individuality. What is my place in the world? Local Environment & Character.
From Class Four children have developed to a point where they can be led into the history and geography of their locality. Tumultuous stories of Norse mythology teach about character and individuality in a complex world. Children begin to learn about their place in the surrounding environment with the study of local geography and map making. They write their own compositions and increase math skills by learning fractions and long division. In music they must hold their own in playing or singing a round.
