2nd Grade - Students had the opportunity to explore their assignments in GoQuest.
3rd Grade - This class learned that Species means a class of individuals having some common characteristics or qualities; distinct sort or kind. Winston Churchill was a poor student but became a gifted leader during WWII. Students worked together to solve the Quizzle or logic elimination puzzle for the warm up activity. In Crystal Pond Woods students continued to practice the creative problem-solving process. The focus of the Relationships lesson was that members of a food chain are interdependent. Students watched the original movie of the Lorax and then discussed how the lack of trees affected the environment. Our final activity was an introduction of a building project where students will have to make a raft with a sail that will stay afloat.
