This document provides an overview of a unit on how societies organize themselves economically. It discusses how economic activities influence social organization and proposes lines of inquiry into the connections between sectors and changes in manufacturing. The unit will examine students' responsibility regarding the quality of production. Key concepts are change, connection and responsibility, while attitudes of cooperation, integrity and creativity are emphasized. Students will develop thinking, social and communication skills. Activities include comparing urban and rural environments, spelling practice, reading assignments on different types of farms and factories, and lessons on comparative and superlative adjectives, division in math, and differences between urban and rural life.
