Homework for Monday, February 12, 2018




Homework for Monday February 12th, 2018. 

1) Write the draft of the Animal Index Card in a piece of paper (letter size, it can be with lines, squaresm or white paper).

a. Look for information about the animal and describe it using the classifications indicated in the mind maps we made about animals: Is it a vertebrate or an invertebrate? What kind of vertebrate or invertebrate animal is it? Is it a land animal or an aquatic animal? Does it have limbs and how does it move? How is its skin? How does it breathe? How does it reproduce? According to what it eats how is it classified? Do you like the animal and why? Write any other information you may find interesting to share. There is an example in Exercise 3 on p. 57 of the Science Book.

b. Print a letter size paper color image of your animal to be pasted in your final work. Don’t paste it anywhere now, just bring the image.

2) To make your Team Plant Collage (Science book p. 71), collect flowers, leaves, seeds, petals, and other parts of wild plants. Try to collect only leaves and flowers that have fallen from the plant and may be dry. Collect as many as possible. The more you have the more possibilities of creativity and options you have when making your collage.

3) Copy the missing mind maps in your Science notebook. (Not everyone finished, so you need to make your you have them complete and correct.)
