Essential Question

We study new plants and the plant life cycle in first grade. In our curriculum we need to teach the children that living things have basic needs and change over time. My question for our unit this fall will be "How can almost all animals' food (even human animals) be traced back to plants? " I welcome your input (edits/additions) to my question, as it may not be broad enough. But remember, we're working with 5, 6, and 7 year olds! Thanks!
