Our Day Today!
Today we read a book called Jungle Drums to review some animal adaptations. In this story a warthog is getting teased by all the other animals for being small. He starts using magic drums to make wishes and switches all the animal colors and patterns around and then all their different adaptations! We had some great discussion about how it might affect animals to change adaptations with another.
The time has come to start our animal research projects to complete our Sharing the Planet Unit! Each learner will work with a partner or a small group to research an animal that they chose. We will be using many resources for this project and learning how to take notes. The first resource we learned about today is Pebble Go. We will take information from our resources and put them into packets. After we complete the research, we will put the information into a presentation!
This week we are starting Counting to 120! We will learn how to count forward to 120, backward from 120, and skip counting! Today we did a pre-assessment to see what counting skills we already have! We filled in a blank 120's Chart!
