Animal Study

We have decided on our winter animal study through a vote. The winner is.... penguin study!

We used a KWL chart to show what we Know, Wonder, and Learned

These are the responses from the students about what they Know already:

Madison K.- They waddle
Manjit- They do no fly. They're fast swimmers
Brody- They're birsd and can't fly. They walk with their babies
Madison L.- They slide on their bellies on snow
Talati- They jump from the water
Grayson- They dive out of water
Evey- They live in the arctic. Most of them are fat
Noah G.-They swim. They're birds that swim
Taylor- They have beaks and wings
Noah F.- They slip and slide
Tyson- They eat fish
Abriella- They like to flop around
Alexa- They lay eggs
Timothy- They walk slowly
Zara- They can't be in the hot weather

These are the questions about what the Wonder about:
Evey- What time does the egg hatches?
Noah G. - When do they get their babies?
Timothy- When do they lay their eggs?
Alexa- Why are they so fat?
Tyson- Why they swim so fast?
Zara- Why are they called penguins?
Sahib- Why do they run so fast?
Taylor - How old do they get?
Madison L.- Why do they have to stay away from the sun?
Manjit- Where does the egg come out?
Brody- If they live in an igloo?
Taylor- Do they have different colours besides black and white?


We will be looking through different mediums to learn about our wonders. It's going to a slippery fun ride!
