Layered & Delicious!!

Everything is better in layers...  A strong foundation, fabulous transitions, endless choices and a delicious topping.

This mini-unit plan was developed and used in Social Studies 10-1, all of the general and specific outcomes are included in the presentation.  It has students work through a unit on sustainability that takes them from foundational knowledge and then on to higher level learning functions (a la Bloom).

This unit uses the textbook "Exploring Globalization" with editors Gardner & Lavold, from McGraw Hill Ryerson; Chapter 11.

There is also a final slide with teacher and students reflections.

For more information on Layered Curriculum approaches, please visit Dr. Kathie Nunley's Layered Curriculum Website.

Enjoy!!
