Some clips of my science experiments for our weather unit.
Last week I created a Fraction Learning Center to help the students review for the test. There were 5 centers total. They included a review worksheet, a Pizza Fraction game, measuring objects, a cookie fraction writing prompt, and a game on my Ipad.
The learning center was a new experience for both the children and I. I think that it's something I would like to work on more in the future when I have my own classroom. The kids responded really well to it.
Video will be up soon :)
As you already know, our class is learning about the weather. The 3rd graders found out how to measure the wind with homemade anemometers. It was a perfect windy day to test them out.
All week long, the 3rd graders have been working on their creative writing skills. I had them brainstorm the idea of finding a pot of gold. The students described what the pot would look like, where they found it, and what they did with all that gold. The final drafts were decorated and hung up. Let me tell you, there were some pretty interesting responses. I think there was one about finding the pot of gold in a sewer being protected by an alligator body guard. Oh the mind of a 9 year old....
By the way, the rainbow is made out of party streamers. It was a lot harder to create than it looks hah.
