Students created scientific journals during an expedition on evolution. This project gave them the opportunity to have a hands-on exploration of the animal kingdom and create a scientific journal with accurate diagrams and information like the ones kept by Darwin and Da Vinci.
Palouse Prairie 5th graders studied our country’s long history of social movements and people coming together to create change in their expedition, We
the People, Se Se Puede!
This project was designed to support their learning in Expedition (Module) #2: Fossils. The project’s title is Scientific Fossil Illustrations. Students chose a fossil to study in their home crew and created a scientifically accurate illustration of that fossil in art.
Sixth grade students transferred knowledge about the properties and movement of water through the Earth's hydrosphere and grappled with the content of the hydrosphere on a smaller scale: our local Root Pike Watershed. Students took a deeper look at their watershed: Lake Michigan.
