My Project
Imagine you have to do a report on how a fossil became a fossil. You must include drawings and photographs, and make inferences about something that lived a million years ago. All this and you are only 9 years old.
Many of my students don't get the chance to leave their neighborhood unless it is for a field trip, so I try to let them experience the world with hands-on activities like digging for fossils!
I also want to provide actual scale models of things we are studying like-dinosaurs. This gives their learning an added bit of pizzazz! Fourth graders learn science best when they can use their hands to make things. I have tried to help develop their natural interest in the subject matter by incorporating project-based learning. In addition, all work is done in class.
