Guided Reading discussions leading to inquiry

EcoKids: Coral Reefs


Tell me more about coral reefs!
What are coral reefs made from? How many fish can live in a coral reef before the habitat is too full? What is a staghorn coral? What is a limestone cup? How do the fish not get scratched by the coral? These were just a few questions that this little group of inquisitive kids had in store for our table discussion.

RMSC field trip highlights

Our first field trip of the year was today and what a fun, learning-filled day it was. We traveled to the rain forest and studied poisonous dart frogs. Then we ventured on down to the coast and studied marine life. We focused on habitats, plants, animals, and adaptations. 
New Vocab: Behavioral vs Physical Adaptation

 We were thinkers, inquirers, open-minded, caring, risk-takers, communicators, and became more knowledgeable. 

Happy Monday
