Soil
This was a fun week for the students! They loved talking about soil and what lives in it. We created an anchor chart in the middle of the week of everything that they can find within soil. The students then chose what they wanted to draw from our list and we glued it into the soil portion of the anchor chart.
The next day, the students brought a bag filled with soil from home. They had the opportunity to explore and sift through their soil and a friend's. They recorded what they found in their science journals. It was so fun to watch them explore and find worms and spiders dead and alive.
Properties of Water
The students came up with a list to describe water. At the end of the week, the students looked at four water bottles filled with different kinds of water (lake, river, tap, and ocean water). They had to guess what kind they thought it was by looking at the clarity. The next week we discussed ways to conserve water.
