Changes are constantly occurring in life. The increase of technology and the needs of mankind continuously force change. The Changes curriculum asks students three main questions: “Can people control changes?” “Can using past information help you predict change?” and “Are changes positive or negative?”
The books in Prufrock’s new Differentiated Curriculum Kits employ a differentiated, integrated curriculum based on broad themes. This all-in-one curriculum helps teachers save planning time, ensure compliance with national standards, and most importantly, pique their students’ natural excitement and interest in discovery. By participating in the wide variety of activities in the Differentiated Curriculum Kit for Grade 2, students will discover the changes around them and gain a lifelong desire to learn.
Changes Book 3: Communication, Honesty, and Invention asks students: “What is the difference between a tall tale, a lie, and a fib?” The third book in the Changes series will lead your students on a journey of understanding the nature of change.
Students also will investigage the different ways to communicate, such as with the Braille system. Through this process, students will come to understand language barriers and how to overcome thesm. Students’ investigation will continue on the topic of inventions and innovations, and how these progresses sometimes create problems instead of alleviating them.
Other books in the Changes series include Changes Book 1: Rights, Resources, and Weather; and Changes Book 2: Progress, Reactions, and History. Each book contains detailed lesson plans, reproducible activity sheets, and assessment tools.
