Introduction of Central Idea
The language that was generated from the classifying activity was used to link to the central idea and teacher’s questions.
Words were given to the kids on index cards. The ones they knew were illustrated and put on display.

Building a Village
One student had the idea to use junk to build a village of houses. After the houses were built, the students added materials to represent the environment: sand, water, trees, plants
As a group we discussed what we noticed about our village and recorded it together.
