October 10-16 is Earth Science Week. Since we are studying the science of Earth and space this year, I have big plans for the week. Although we don't do much unit study type of stuff, we will be that week!
The video Why Earth Science? was a great find. I wish I had seen this before our first week of school! I'll be showing it to the boys during Earth Science Week.
We'll be watching Journey to the Center of the Earth [again :-)] and using this very cool guide (pdf) to go along with it. In art, we've been talking about and making cartoons/comics, so this came along at the perfect time!
We'll be becoming Junior Paleontologists on October 13th for National Fossil Day.
We will be checking out cloud types and identifying those that we see in our own skies.
We might be playing this Water Cycle Game. I will definitely be printing this water cycle placemat.
We also might be using this Seismic Superheroes pdf document.
That's what I have planned so far. I have a feeling we will spend a lot of time on the Journey to the Center of the Earth and Junior Paleontologists activities, so doubt I'll add more....but with me, you never know!
