Grade 2 Science · World 9: Changing Neighborhood · Level 63
People Change Things
Roads, gardens, litter, and planting trees.
Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. About 15 minutes.
What children learn in Level 63
- People change the environment more than anyone. Builders cut down trees to make roads and houses.
- Some changes help. Families turn an empty lot into a garden, and towns plant trees along the street.
- Some changes harm. Litter can wash into creeks and hurt fish. Rain runs right off a paved parking lot instead of soaking in.
- You can make helpful changes: pick up litter, recycle, and plant trees and flowers!
- Your turn! Sort these: do they help or harm the environment?
Georgia Standards of Excellence in Science:
- S2E3.b — Construct an explanation of the causes and effects of a change to the environment in your community.
