| Day 1 Observation |
We have been studying the habitat and life of the salamander. I had a friend that has a gecko so we borrowed the gecko so the students could observe a lizard. The gecko is a huge hit. The students enjoy watching him and it helps to keep the students engaged in the lesson. They have learned how to take scientific notes through observation. They learned that you must be factual, detailed, and specific. They have watched him stalk and eat crickets, sleep, climb, and eat the skin he sheds. We have used this theme to teach the students about adjectives and verbs. This theme has also taught them how to use a concept map and make number notes. Next week we will begin the science portion on the life cycle of the salamander.
