3rd Grade - The vocabulary word for today was Schlep which means a stupid or clumsy person. Louis Pasteur, the Father of Microbiology, was today's explorer. Students completed a Quotation Quizzler for the warm-up activity. In Crystal Pond Woods, by using Jordan the Judge's Problem Solving Matrix, students were able to come up with their own classroom activity. Our Discoveries lesson had students researching a famous paleontologist. Students also experienced a reader's theater reading about those explorers. The final activity was a continuation of the interrelationship of members of the food chain.
