3rd Grade - The word of the day was Sedulous which means industrious. Today's investigator was Harrison Ford, who rescues people in real life as well as on the big screen. Our warm-up activity was a Quotation Quizzler. The trip to Crystal Pond Woods had students practicing their Divergent Thinking by trying to build a structure 9" tall that would hold a set of encyclopedias. Our science activity focused on chemistry and what happens to steel in water or water and oil. The rest of the time was spent finishing brochures about the island students researched.
