The teacher developed a unit based on the theme of communities around the world. She read a big book with her students on this subject, then they wrote their own books reflecting their ideas and experiences based on different themes of communities around the world. Each student then chose a country to learn about in more depth and wrote a report on that country.The unit culminated in a field trip to the Bata Shoe Museum
