This week, they visited Bernheim Forest on their science field trip to learn more about various habitats. This trip supports both the plant unit they just finished and the habitat project that they have due at the end of the month. To prepare for this project, students have viewed a Flocabulary video “Foodchain” and Ducksters.com to research different ecosystems around the world. They also used an “Untamed Science – Ecosystem” video on Pearson Realize, which is part of their science textbook to explore habitats. Through the use of these technology resources and the study of the habitats at Bernheim Forest – both plants and animals, students are working to prepare and design their individual habitat projects. Great learning, 3rd grade!
