We were first treated to a music program in
which they incorporated the areas they have
been learning about into a musical program-
The deep sea, the dessert, and Antarctica.
In past years the animals, plants, etc for the life
sized biomes were created at home using only
recycled materials. However this year they
were all created at school and parents sent
materials to build them there. This was sooo nice for the
parents since we did not have to help them and
it was sooo nice for the kids because they
were super excited to show us what they had
created.
Aaron made a prickly pear cactus with
another boy in his class. We were so impressed
with it! Each student also researched their plant
or animal, did a report, drew a picture, and
wrote poetry. The teachers used bar code
scanners so that we could listen on our smart phones
to the children reporting on their subject.
