How Do Living Things Grow and Change?



The Sunshine Band has been working on the essential question, "How Do Living Things Grow and Change?" We have studied the life cycle of a frog and of plants in detail. We have also paired this study with revisiting Report Writing to share our research of living things. In celebration of our efforts, our student were to create a representation of any life cycle they would like (except a butterfly) and present it to out class. Our students and teachers watched in awe today as what can be only described as "super scientists" presented their Life Cycle Presentations. Our students took great ownership with this assignment and we are so pleased with all the hard work! Students are presenting their research with pride as they explain the stages in a life cycle. We even had one student bring frogs in their different stages of growth; live for viewing!!! Thank you parents and students for taking the time to learn more about life cycles and sharing your schema with our class :D! We all learned something new today and look forward to hearing from all of our Sunshine Scientists :). Take a look at what was shared so far..
