Engaged Citizens: Explore connection between science, technology,
society, and the environment, experiencing opportunities to contribute positively to the environmental, economic, and social substantiality of local and global communities
Reflect and act on personal responsibilities to understand and respect their place in the natural and constructed world
Make personal decisions that contribute to living in harmony with their and the natural world
Developing Thinking: Construct knowledge to make sense of the world around them Develop an understanding by building and reflecting on their
observations and what they know, and others know Thinking contextually, creatively and critically students
depend their understanding of the natural and constructed world
Developing Identity and Interdependence: Learners to be aware of the natural environment, social and
cultural expectations and possibilities for individual and group accomplishments
Interdependence assumes the possession of a positive self-concept and ability to live in harmony with others in the natural and constructed world
Examine the interdependence among living things within local, national, and global environments and to consider the impact of individual decisions on those environments
Developing Literacies: Multi-faced literacies and provide a variety of ways; various
language systems and media to interoperates the world and express understandings of it

Lesson 2: Introduction to Sight (Miskisik [miss-key-sick])Talking to the students about what sight is. Asking them if they remember what body part we use for sight and teaching them what the word eyes is in Cree. Talk with them how with sight we can see different colours, shapes, and sizes all of which make up objects. Hand out the little booklet for our I Spy game. Students will go throughout the school and depending on weather outside. Here they will fill out their booklets answering questions. Finish with bring them back to the classroom and asking what kinds of things they saw throughout the school.
Outcomes and indicators
SE1.1Investigate characteristics of the five traditional external senses (i.e., sight, sound, smell, touch, and taste) in humans and animals.
(a) Identify each of the senses and associate those senses with parts of humans or other animals, including sight and eyes, smell and nose, hearing and ears, taste and tongue/nose, and touch and skin.
(b) Identify characteristics used to describe the range of observations related to each sense (e.g., sounds can be described as loud or soft, high pitch or low pitch; tastes related to the tongue can be described as sweet, sour, salty, or bitter; textures can be described as hard or soft, smooth or rough, sticky or not sticky; smells can be described as musky, aromatic, pungent, or putrid; and appearance can be described in terms of shape, colour, and lustre).
SE1.2Explore how humans and animals use their senses to interact with their environment.
(c)Record observations of various environments (e.g., classroom, gymnasium, school yard, library, and cafeteria)(i)Explain how each of the senses helps us to recognize, describe, and safely use materials, and recognize potential dangers in the environment (e.g., colour and smell help determine whether fruit is healthy or bruised, ripe or overripe; machine noises may indicate it needs repair or is not being used correctly; and sirens and flashing lights may indicate an emergency vehicle).

Lesson 20: Super SensesTalk about senses and how animals have special adaptations when it comes to senses and how depending on the animal, they have super senses that help them survive in the wild.
Outcomes and indicators SE 1.2 Explore how humans and animals use their senses to interact with their
environment.(k)Describe different sense organs and/or adaptations that enable various animals to accomplish their daily tasks (e.g., bats use echolocation to find prey, cat's pupils dilate to see in low light, bees can sense ultraviolet light, scorpions can have up to 12 eyes, elephants can hear extremely low sounds, and hawks have excellent vision).

Assess and Reflect (Stage 4)Considerations CommentsCELS & CCC’s: Do the learning experiences allow learners to use multiple literacies while constructing knowledge, demonstrating social responsibility, and acting autonomously in their world?
I have given many different opportunities within the unit for the students to have different experiences. The students got to investigate the 5 senses in different ways and get into depth on those with a hand on, physical, and writing component. Students have to work on their own, with partners, small groups, and whole class. Students got to investigate different places in the school such as the kitchen, library, gym, and classroom. Completing hands on activities, work sheets, and active activities.
Required Areas of Study: Is there alignment between outcomes, performance assessment (GRASPS) and learning experiences?
The assessments that are used cover summative assessment including a self- assessment rubric, seesaw activity, anecdotal notes, and worksheets. All assessments line up with the science outcomes within the 5 senses strand. All activities cover multiple outcomes both within the science subject and cross curricular.
Student Evaluation: Have I included formative and summative assessments reflective of student needs and interests based on curricular outcomes?
There are multiple formative assessments, completion of work and observation of students, there is also summative assessment being a seesaw activity and multiple worksheets/ activities. Students will also be doing some self-assessments as well.
Instructional Approaches: Do I use a variety of teacher directed and student-centered instructional approaches?
Most of the lesson start with a teacher directed introduction, using that as the hook, then the lessons go into the teacher and students, asking the students what is expected, finally the students will work on what is being done, then it goes back to teacher directed. For other lessons it is just student centred, such as them giving presentations, or work periods.
Adaptive Dimension: Have I made purposeful adjustments to the curriculum content (not outcomes), instructional practices, and/or the learning environment to meet the learning needs of all my students?
For students who require further support: Having students work in pairs or groups where they can have support
from other stronger students Allowing drawing rather than just writing Allowing students to ask questions for assistance
For students who need extension/challenge Having them work with weaker students Giving extra work, such as an additional fun activity
Resource Based Learning: Do the students have access to various resources on an ongoing basis from a wide variety of worldviews, perspectives and voices?
Students will experience different perspectives and how different senses work having them and not. Also bringing in the Elder to talk about how they use the 5 senses.
FNM/I Content and Perspectives/Gender Each lesson is structured to not be exclusive to any child’s identity.

Equity/Multicultural Education: Have I nurtured and promoted diversity while honoring each child’s identity?
Differences are encouraged and students are allowed and encouraged to share topics they may have relating to this units’ topics related to where they may come from.
