After we sorted we discussed that one attribute all living things had in common was that they grow and breath.
Our scientists then went into their science journals to record their learning...
We then took a sharing walk, observing each others recordings as we walked around the circle.
It was so wonderful to hear them discuss each others entries. They even offered suggestions as to how others could make their recordings easier to understand. Many went back to add labels and details to their recordings. Learning from their friends is the best way to go!
After this work we studied a poster of Michigan Wildlife. After taking a quiet minute to look, scientists recorded what they saw. They put their recordings onto the poster so we could do some deep thinking.
We noticed that the forest scene was filled with animals (birds, mammals, reptiles and insects), plants and water.
What does this tell us about what living things need???
Ask your scientist...
