5th grade Criminology Wrap Up

 
After 6 weeks of studying Criminology we put all that learned knowledge to use by creating our own Whodunnit booklet complete with suspects, crime scene, evidence, and solutions. They should be bring them home soon, so see if you can solve their crime and remember, don't jump to conclusions:)
 
 

They are ready for their new unit on Washington, D.C....coming soon!

4th Grade Fish Kits


 
4th graders learned all about parts of a fish and what they do.  Here's a song that they learned to help them remember all the fins of a fish. 
 
Dorsal, Pectoral, Pelvic, Caudal, Pelvic, Caudal
Dorsal, Pectoral, Pelvic, Caudal, Pelvic, Caudal
Lateral Line, Operculum and Gills
Dorsal, Pectoral, Pelvic, Caudal, Pelvic, Caudal
And don't forget the anal fin ;)
 
 



Students were given playdough, fins, and a numbered descriptive paragraph (no picture)  and they were to build the fish described matching up the correct fins, body shape, and tails and then check the number with the picture to see how close they followed directions.  These students did AWESOME.
