| Use this science paired text with your grade 4 class. They will not only increase their reading and comprehension skills but also learn some information on how people shape the environment. There is a fiction and non fiction text with comp questions that follow. Can your students answer the questions correctly without looking back in the text. The comparison questions will help practice critical thinking skills. Humans interact with the environment every day. These interactions can help or harm the Earth. When people build homes, roads, and cities, they change the land. But not all human-environment interactions are harmful. People also work to protect nature. What is deforestation and why is it harmful? How can farming affect the environment? What are some ways people help protect nature? How does transportation impact the planet? Why is it important to make smart choices about the environment? Leo loved the garden behind his school. It had tall sunflowers, buzzing bees, and a pond with frogs. But one day, he noticed something strange—trash was everywhere, and the pond looked dirty. What problem did Leo notice in the garden? What actions did Leo and his friends take to help? How did the garden change after they cleaned it? What message did Leo share with his classmates? What new activity did Leo’s class start? How do both passages show the effects of human actions on the environment? | ||||
