For the topic Is Seeing Believing? I have chosen the following as an essential question: How do we know what to believe in science?
This essential question encompasses the topic of the curriculum unit which is a novel study. The book, Cryptid Hunters, by Roland Smith is an intriguing story about a scientist who has dedicated his life to studying cryptids and protecting them from exploitation. As the students read the novel about cryptids and complete a variety of activities to reach the understandings, they will be mystified and anxious to learn more about the phenomena. One activity the students must complete involves research of cryptids and then a presentation which will reveal their plan for finding a cryptid. Even though the students will research what is known about cryptids, they will have to develop a plan of action for capturing a cryptid based on their own beliefs.
