The Mud Lake Project

Grade 4: Political and Physical Regions of Canad​A

Picture
Overview
Students will use the social studies inquiry process to investigate the issues and challenges
associated with balancing development with environmental stewardship in their community. After examining a variety of media reports, students will gain a better understanding of various perspectives. For the field study component, students will complete a site visit to the nearby conservation area (Mud Lake) with an environmental biologist. The culminating task will be a song, rap, or poem from the perspective of an animal losing its habitat because of a new housing development, a brochure outlining the steps the developer is taking to protect the local habitat, or a persuasive piece of writing outlining their own opinion about the development.
