Thematic units are a great way to connect different subjects with one another in a unifying way. Thematic units should be education based and interesting for the students.
While observing a second grade classroom, I was introduced to the concept of thematic units. Everything that the class was doing was involved frogs. All of the spelling words dealt with something to do with frogs. For science, the students learned the life cycle of frogs as they transformed from tadpoles.
Thematic lessons are a fun way to unify subjects. Ideas for thematic lessons are available on different websites including Scholastic.com.
