2. Include the unit of study you will focus on (ie: plants; butterfly cycle, etc.) (1 point)
3. Indicate what grade level you created the plan for (nothing higher than 3rd grade) (1 point)
4. Use Cpalms (Links to an external site.) to select standards (1 point)

(you can use this as a resource (Links to an external site.)) for your project showing the the different subjects that will be integrated as well as the activities that will be implemented for each (each subject and activity is worth 1 point)
2. Choose 5 from the following:
   * Langauge Arts

FOR EXAMPLE:

The idea is to create a cross-curricular unit so that you incorporate other content areas in the lesson. For instance, if you create a primary lesson on the plant life, you can incorporate:

• A sentence writing component (language arts)
• A number order activity as related to the plant cycle and what comes first, second, third, etc. (math)
• A drawing of the plant cycle (art)
• Students can plant seeds in a pot (building)
• The Plant Song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-l-gsWOKzk
