Provide a metaview, lifting students into a wider view of the concept. Use another medium (not reading or writing) to connect students' personal knowing to the concept (i.e. visual arts, music, movement, metaphor, etc.) Involve learners in reflective production that blends the emotional and the cognitive.

Guided Imagery of 6 months spent in yard. Indicate changes in environment.

Objective: Develop concept that lifestyle is dependent on environment and may change with the seasons. This change will effect lifestyle in regard to shelter, clothing, food and tools.

Activity: Provide guided imagery with audio cassette of "spring sounds." Students will imagine they had to spend 6 months in the courtyard with their family. They will illustrate a picture describing the changes in shelter, food, clothing and tools.
