A Storythread experience for Grade Three
Blanket Role - Environmental Advisors
Environmental Advisors understand how to be happy and healthy in their place.
Environmental Advisors conduct investigations in order to describe why natural places are essential to the health of all living things so that they can understand the effect of their actions and share their ideas and findings with others.
The Mission Earth Storythread is set on the fictional planet Zaneth in the city of Hypertron where technology and nature are out of balance. The students are enlisted to help when, in an attempt to ensure Hypertron’s children are always busy and having fun, the ministers decide to chop down the last forest to build yet another fun park.
