Describing Words

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.
