Bodies of Water Booklets

This week after Christmas break we began a new science unit and we've begun to learn a bit more about water. We started the week of by discussing why we think water is important and we then looked at the many ways that we use water throughout our days at home and at school. To end the week, we looked at the different places that we find water on the earth. We had already discussed bodies of water in social studies, so to show their prior knowledge, the students were put into groups to create small booklets describing these different bodies of water.

These booklets included a cover page, four pages with a sentence and picture of four different bodies of water, and an ending page to write their names. Students worked hard on these booklets and the results show that our second and third graders really know all about bodies of water on the earth. Good job students!
