Yesterday (Monday) and today students completed an Insect Art and Poetry project. Each student chose a topic from a list of choices, used an information book with real photographs of their topic to find information, and hand drew (without tracing) their topic. The finished art is stunning and the accompanying persona poetry (spoken in the first person, from the insect's point of view) is rhythmic and entertaining to read. Awesome job everyone!!
In between the multiple steps to this project, students also wrote their Spelling Pre-Test, had 2 45 min math lessons on division, completed Science readings and questions on animal migration, had a Library book exchange, track practice outside with the other grade 4 class, and handwriting practice. How well can you handwrite, "Ribbit, ssssss, tweet, tweet?"
