    Third grade students focused on how living in groups can help organisms survive by learning about a monkey that warns its group about predators. They conducted an experiment on inherited traits in celery and looked for evidence in a reference book to support how an organism's traits are influenced by the environment. Fourth grade students finished their science test and returned to a unit on vision and light, investigating eye structures and how they allow animals to recognize objects by testing their own senses and reading about a scientist studying crows.

    Science with Mrs.

    Giardina
    June 2019

    Third Grade: Students focus on a monkey that learns a call to warn members of its
    group that a predator is nearby—and learn that living in groups can help organisms
    survive. Students use what they have learned so far about the influence of the
    environment on traits to write scientific explanations about where Wolf 44’s trait
    for hunting style came from. Students gather evidence for this idea by conducting a
    hands-on investigation of an inherited trait (the green color of celery) that can be
    affected by the environment (food coloring and water). Students look for additional
    evidence to support this idea by reading about different organisms in the reference
    book, Handbook of Traits. Students use another digital modeling tool to show their
    ideas about where an organism can get its traits.

    Fourth Grade: SCIENCE TEST IS OVER!!! Hooray! Back to our Vision and Light unit for
    June.Through testing their own senses, using the digital simulation, and reading
    about how a real scientist investigated whether crows recognize humans, students
    investigate the structures that make up an animal’s eye and how those structures
    function. They also investigate how those structures enable an animal to recognize
    objects in its environment.
