SALAMANDERS, SALAMANDERS, SALAMANDERS
It won't hurt my feelings if I don't ever see another salamander again. We have been studying salamanders for our theme unit for a month. The picture above is a salamander drawing covered with describing words. We also learned action words, parts of a story, and observation skills during this unit. The students especially liked having a real lizard in the room to observe. I believe it helped fuel their interest and kept them engaged during the lessons. We are changing the theme this week, and not a day too early. I returned the pet salamander to its rightful owner today.
