Description

When we study the Arctic, we discover what it takes to survive in one of the harshest environments on earth – and how that environment is in peril due to anthropogenic climate change. This Arctic unit study is perfect for elementary school science class or as a homeschool nature study. It includes all the activities, worksheets, decor, flashcards, and readings you need for an amazing Arctic unit study!

Age group: I created this Arctic unit study with universal design and mixed age groups in mind. This unit study is great for elementary school but is easily adapted for use with other age groups as well.
