Special thanks go out to our room parents who helped to organize and attended our holiday festivities! The kids had a great time!
Students did a great job creating and finding products that were based on a mythological character or event. They researched the myth, summarized, created or sought out products that related to myths, explained their thoughts on why the product goes with the myth, and presented their ideas to the class. This project was a ton of fun, and the students did an amazing job!
Parents, I would love more of your student's zoo photos. If you chaperoned or your child has pictures from the zoo trip, please email them to me. I will include them on the site. Thank you!
The kids did a great job trying out Prezi.com to create their write-up for their plant experiments. Some of the experiments were successful; some were not. Through this activity, the students were able to synthesize and experiment, analyze data through observation, and report their findings while applying the scientific method. Overall, I was and am thoroughly pleased with this activity and the way students were engaged.
We made mess, but it was a fun way of helping students to understand why our writing needs to be detailed, use prepositional phrases, and be organized.
(I could not for the life of me get the pictures to rotate. I think the phone was upside down? ! But, you get the idea. They should print correctly, none-the-less. Students take a peek at the changes that they are noticing in the celery after it had been sitting in colored water. They learned about the structures of a plant while being introduced to the scientific method.
