Students have been enjoying our Building Things Unit in Science. We are also tying this into a Fairy Tale Unit in Language Arts. We are looking at story elements, as well as comprehension of the stories and the moral/virtue or character lessons in these fairy tales. So far, we have read the nursey rhyme, Humpty Dumpty and built a wall, Rapunzel and built a tower, The Three Billy Goats Gruff and built a bridge, and The Three Little Pigs and built a house. We are working in small groups, where students have to discuss their ideas and then carry it out by taking turns and working fairly with others. Students have been very creative and are enjoying the different building materials that we are using.
We will also be including some measurement activities with this unit as
well.
