3rd graders have been studying vertebrates and non vertebrates. We started out by attempting to sort animals into different groups in many ways. We then studied the groups that scientists sort all living things into. Students invented a new animal that had to fit into one class of animals. We then studied insects and the students made wonderful models of insects.
We are currently dissecting owl pellets and are discovering many bones. The students will extract the bones from the owl pellet, clean them, identify them, and then assemble what they have into a skeleton. Updates to come!
