Fall Social Studies/Nature Based Class Educational Plan:

Focus: Children explore how they belong in space and time—through seasonal change, local landscapes, and the people who care for them.

History:

• Create personal and class timelines that include family traditions, seasonal changes, and cultural milestones
• Explore personal and family histories through story sharing and nature journals
• Create visual timelines showing changes in the landscape or ecosystems
• Honor Indigenous land history of our region - Miami, Potawatomi, Shawnee peoples
• Explore oral storytelling traditions from different cultures that explain fall, harvest, and change

Civics & Government:

• Study the role of local elected officials (mayor, council, parks board) in stewarding natural spaces and our local, state, and national communities. Whose voices are heard? Whose voices are missing?
• Practice inclusive decision-making through daily community meetings and votes
• Invite local officials, land stewards, and BIPOC leaders to share their work with students
  

Geography:

• Practice mapping the land with journaling after studying maps and compass roses
• Learn about landforms and regions of Indiana while hiking and journaling - compare to landforms and waterways around the world
• Use nature walks to build mental and maps and understand human/nature interactions 

Economics: 

• Explore goods and services using real-world examples in the community and in nature: farm stands, nature markets, compost as a resource, etc.
• Use natural materials (seeds, sticks, rocks) to role-play bartering, trading, and resource scarcity
• Journal about how people use, share, and care for fall resources- read true stories about people’s connection to the fall harvest
