Synopsis

Students prepare for a “field trip” to the beach on a hot day through a read aloud, writing, and hands-on activities.

Inquire: Students think about what they should bring to the beach to stay safe in the sun.
Investigate: Students engage in a read aloud of If You Ever Want to Bring a Piano to the Beach, Don’t! by Elise Parsley, and choose what to bring to the beach to be safe from the sun and heat through writing and a hands-on activity.
Inspire: Students write and draw to explain necessary items or physical adaptations for a heat wave.
