We are but a piece of the puzzle. Humans are one part of the vast, interconnected, and interdependent world of nature. Explore some important and fascinating relationships through specimens, objects, and stories with a Museum Educator or Indigenous Museum Educator in this lesson. Themes may include the interdependence of all living things; the structures and adaptations in response to various environments; and the various relationships that humans have developed with the natural world around us, both past and present.

Learning goals:

  • How have relationships with the environment affected the development of communities in the past?
  • How have communities impacted the surrounding (local, national, international) environments?
  • How are environmental issues being tackled nationally (Gr. 5) and internationally (Gr. 6)?
