Animals

Today, with a partner, we were asked to answer the following two questions and post our findings to padlet.  The two questions were: 1.  What do all animals need to live? and 2.  How do scientists sort/group/classify animals?  After posting, we got together in a 'knowledge-building circle' (not really a circle since we are such a large group) and discussed our findings.  Some students were on task and answered the questions to the best of their abilities.  Other students are working on answering the questions then finding a picture that matches their writing.

I went to Pet Smart today to get some more mealworms and found these interesting critters!

In Language, we completed our Non-Fiction Text Features anchor chart and will share it out next week.  Have a great (and restful) long weekend! Try and post something to your blogs...maybe about what you are up to on Victoria Day!
