This 4-week enquiry-based learning unit invites 6th-grade students to explore the science, history, and human experience of pandemics in an interactive and reflective way. Through hands-on simulations, creative storytelling, and thoughtful discussion, students investigate how viruses spread, how communities respond, and how individuals cope during times of crisis. The unit blends scientific inquiry with emotional literacy, empowering learners to think critically about the world they live in—and the world they want to help shape.
Students will:
- Simulate the spread of a mysterious illness
- Create virus-fighting superheroes and public health campaigns
- Reflect on lockdown life through diaries, comics, and skits
- Design preparedness plans and awareness projects for the future
Grounded in enquiry, empathy, and real-world connection, The Pandemic – Then and Now encourages active citizenship, resilience, and hope.
