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

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.
While students were reading and discussing Margot Shetterly's book Hidden Figures, we kept a class chart while students kept an individual chart of names, locations, terms, and ideas mentioned in the book about Civil Rights.
