Abstract
<jats:p>In this heart-centered science lesson, students will discover the beautiful Lakota concept of Mitakuye Oyasin, which teaches us that "we are all related." Rather than seeing nature as a collection of separate things, children will learn to see the Invisible Web, the magical connections between the sun, soil, water, plants (flora), and animals (fauna). Through a hands-on "Yarn Web" activity and outdoor exploration, students will move beyond being just observers and start seeing themselves as stewards (caretakers) of their environment. They will learn that when we help a bee or protect a stream, we are helping our own Earth family. This lesson blends Indigenous wisdom with ecological science to help young learners develop a deep sense of gratitude, respect, and responsibility for the interconnected world they live in.</jats:p>
