I am so excited about the A day assignments from last night! We were lucky enough to be serenaded by Zoe, and we got the pleasure of hearing poetry and reading cartoons about the parts of the Earth and graphs. I can't wait to see what next week brings.
Busy is the theme for the week! Today we read about the layers of the Earth and charted the characteristics of a peanut M&M and the Earth. Tomorrow, we will be comparing them to each other and looking for trends and patterns in the characteristics of the layers of the Earth. Tonight for HW, each student should be writing three paragraphs about the article that they read in class. They were given requirements for their paragraphs in class. We also learned what a cross-section is today, so don't be surprised if all your fruit ends up cut in half :)
EQ:How is the earth like a peanut m&m?
ReplyDeleteBeacause the shell is the crust,chocolate is the mantle and the peanut is the core.
EQ:How do we use models to help us understand things we cannot see?
We used the m&m to see what the earth would sort of look like if we cut the earth in half.
Thank for letting us eat M&M!! :)
Today was so much fun!!!! I thought that the way the banana was cut was so cool!!!! This is going to be a really fun year.
