Our entire class showing off their Alien Writing. The students worked on these pieces for a little over a week. In most cases they completed several, however in the end they chose one or two of their favorites to be displayed in the hallway near the library. These aren't as easy they look, especially for fourth graders. Other than being cool to look at, the object of this lesson is to get the kids to slow down, trust their hand eye coordination, and think things through. They did an amazing job!
The pictures below are some of the final products from a mini class project we did together called Vegetation ABC's. Each student researched a plant, tree or flower that started with the same letter as their first name. They were asked to create a poster with illustration that included the plant's scientific name, habitat, physical description, and interesting facts. Some students chose to do extra credit by doing two, or including a poem, or including animals that depended on their topic. They did a great job for their first integrated project. There is many more to come.
Wow...great pictures...can tell lots of effort went into these. Nice work. :)
ReplyDeleteAMAZING! You have done an excellent job of motivating those kiddos and setting those expectations. Tell your students that their work shows thought and care and they should be proud!
