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.

Discuss brainstorm; frame sentence orally.

Objective: Students will show an understanding that there are several places (i.e., home, class, etc.) which make up their habitat in the neighborhood.

Activity: Create a poster board classification chart listing the places which make up their habitat (neighborhood). Have each student place their 4" x 6" drawing from the activity in quadrant 1R under the correct heading. Discuss placement of pictures on chart.

Assessment: Students will correctly place their drawing on the chart.
