What a great way to weave in depth and complexity along with technology. How does the current drought we are facing, effect the Colorado River and Mammoth Mountain? Of course, at the end, they seemed most fascinated by finding their homes, school, and park.
To culminate our Landforms unit, we created our own landform maps (Next Generation Earth Science Standard) Students tore up paper to "mosaic" the background and then used model magic to create landforms. It was a great way to end the unit, using all learning modalities and showcase our learning.
I can't wait for our next Science project, where we will be partnering with Eden Reforestation. More to come next month.
