General curriculum connection examples

• Science: Students create a simple map showing what plants need to grow (sun, water, soil) or the steps of the water cycle using drawings and arrows.
• Math: Children make a map showing how numbers can be added, broken apart (e.g., number bonds), or grouped using visual models.
• Language/Arts: Students create a character map with traits, actions, and feelings using pictures and key words from a story they read.
• History/Social Studies: Children map out changes in transportation over time, using drawings and simple labels to compare “then” and “now.”
• Environmental Studies: Students make a weather map showing different types of weather and how to prepare for them, using icons and short descriptions.
• Class-teacher lessons: “Welcoming New Classmate” Being Friendly.” Branch to “Saying hi,” “Showing someone around,” “Sharing a game,” “Learning their name,” “Feeling safe.” Show how those actions connect to making community stronger.
