This document outlines a year 3 unit plan focused on studying the school environment. The plan incorporates several curriculum areas and involves students developing an understanding of their school's environment, values around sustainability, and creating a whole-school vision map. Students will conduct investigations, surveys, and mapping activities to document the current state of the environment and values. They will synthesize their findings to develop a vision map representing the whole class and school's ideas for an environmentally and socially sustainable future school.
