About the Curriculum

This curriculum was developed by the City of Bloomington for elementary students in the Bloomington community. It is organized into three grade bands (K-2, 3-4, and 5-6) and is designed to be revisited as students progress through elementary school.

The curriculum includes five lessons, each featuring discussion questions, a presentation, a book suggestion, and optional activities to reinforce the lesson.
