1st+Grade+Keyboarding

Over the next couple of weeks, we will be exploring the life cycles of different animals. We will focus on the frog and the butterfly in particular. Their life cycles are different than most animals because they go through a metamorphosis. We will be watching some videos and doing some activies to help us understand what that scientific word really means. :)  Day 1: The Frog
 * We will start off the day by watching a [|BrainPOP] movie about the frog. Observe how different it looks from the time it hatches to the time it is an adult.
 * After the movie, we will complete an organizer using Pixie!

Day 2: The Butterfly
 * Again, we will start off the day by watching a [|BrainPOP] movie about butterflies. We will once again use our skills of observation to notice the changes it undergoes from the time butterflies are born to the time they are adults.
 * After the movie, we will complete another organizer. This time we will be using Inspiration.
