Title – Different Regions of the World

By – Debbie Haren

Subject – Social Studies, MultiDisciplinary

Grade Level – 4-5

Set up each wall in your room to represent a different region or country. For instance you could write on one wall THE RAINFORREST, THE DESSERT, THE JUNGLES OF SOUTH AMERICA, THE OCEANS OF THE WORLD , THE MOUNTAINS OF THE HIMALAYAS. Have students research one area and make crafts of the animals and habitats of that region. Such as making trees, cactus plants, large trees with hanging vines and branches. Have each student have a specific item to research and make crafts for on the wall. Some areas to research would be animal, weather, habitat, time zone, exports, tourism and population, languages, cultures of the people living there. At the end of the unit have parents come in to see the walls and the reports hung up in each region. Have students give their reports to the whole class and point to their particular art or craft on the wall that represents what they found out about. This would be great to show parents on parent teacher conferences.
