Understanding Life Systems: Growth and Changes in Plants

PLANTS 


Good afternoon team. Ready to make a salad? This week we have learned a lot about different types of plants, plant parts, growth and life cycle. Click Here to participate in making a salad online. To make the salad you will need to match the plant part with the correct name.  If you enjoy eating salads like I do, it may make you want to go make a real salad. Enjoy!

This afternoon we will have the Treetures take us on a virtual adventure online. The Treetures are very exited to share all their information about trees and forestst with you. Go ahead and let the Treetures take you to explore their wonderful world. Click Here to enter the Treetures virtual adventure online. Have a wonderful learning and adventure! 


Understanding Structures and Mechanisms: Strong and Stable Structures

BRIDGES 

Hello team. We are almost at the end of our unit and we have been learning a lot about the five different type of bridges and all the different types of materials they are made from. You all have created a great visual map of the five different types of bridges in great detail. All of you give yourself a pat on the back. We are only two days away from making our own bridges in our groups. I would like to share with you some other classes visual maps of the five different types of bridges that they have designed just as we have done early this week. Click Here to view examples of other students visual maps on the five different types of bridges. Click Here to review and reflect on the information about the five different type of bridges.
