Information |
Exploring Caves is an interdisciplinary set of materials on caves for
grades K-3. Caves entail at least five scientific disciplines: earth
science, hydrology, mapping, biology, and anthropology. Each of these
disciplines involves a unique content area as well as the development of
particular intellectual skills. This unit aims at helping teachers to sort
and organize the most important ideas in this rich scientific area.
Detailed lesson plans serve as ways to pass these ideas on to very young
students.
