This week we began our first PBL project entitled, "It's Alive." Our driving question is "Is it alive?" We have been learning about animals who live on the farm and plants that are grown there. We have learned that in order for something to be alive it has to breathe, move, require food and water to survive, reproduce (make more like itself), and grow and change. Throughout the week, we researched farm animals and learned about the different parts of each animal. Then, we drew and labeled an animal's parts and wrote about characteristics that are specific to that animal. After that, we researched the plants that are grown on the farm and illustrated these crops. Finally, we created our own farm where we built pens for our farm animals, barns for our people/supplies, and gardens for our crops. Check out our creative pictures from our first PBL project. We learned so much about what makes an animal or plant alive. We can't wait to continue our study next week!
