the city the students create could be our whole unit

(sayra)

This just occured to me. What do you think of making the city/bush the whole unit?

So the art would be 2 lessons, the city diarama and the old bush diarama

they could have a maths lesson drawing out where everything is going to go and deciding on what building is what.

Science could be the type of bush that their city used to be - the open scrub/dense forest/ plains/desertand thus the type of animals they would have had back then.

There could be an English lesson on writing a article/story about their city, hmm, ok, I dunno.

But what do you think about using the Before Was Bush Now Is City idea for the whole unit?
