Because of your support, our classroom library now boasts a vibrant collection of books dedicated to our animal unit! These new texts are doing so much more than just teaching us about habitats and life cycles. By engaging with both narrative non-fiction and detailed field guides, our students are mastering key literacy skills, including: Students are looking at how different species adapt to similar environments, their science vocabulary is expanding; and our readers are learning how to navigate text features such as glossaries and captions to find specific facts quickly. We use these books for \"Partner Reading,\" where students take turns teaching one another about their chosen animal, turning our classroom into a hive of mini-experts. A few of our students have started their own \"Research Journals\" during recess, inspired by the scientific sketches in the new collection.

The seat organizers are always a hit because students feel a sense of pride in having a dedicated, tidy space for their personal supplies. This significantly reduces transition times between lessons.\r\n\r\nWe put our resources into action with the Infographics Project. We used the new copy paper to create colorful infographics.
