Fifth grade BTAG students are beginning a unit called "Planet Problems". The unit will focus on problems in our world and creative ways we might be able to impact or solve these problems. Some of our ideas for topics within this unit include:
- Global warming
- Ozone layer
- Coral reefs
- Pollution
- Endangered animals
- Trash/Recycling
- War (We read an NPR transcript about a teenager who invented a device used to detect explosive land mines)
- Clean Water
- Hunger/Healthy Foods
- Shelter
- Education for all
What other "Planet Problems" can you think of?
