This week we journaled and did think alouds about describing. They were prompted to use their five senses. They were asked to describe a soccer ball, football and basketball. their answers consisted of rough, smooth, round, oval. It was cold outside and we got a response of, "The ball is cold as ice."
One day we asked the students to describe what activiites we did using the senses. The kids replied with, "I heard the kids yelling as we were running." and "I could feel the other kids pushing against me." When we were bear crawling the ground felt cold." This describing will lead to compare and contrast.
Interdisciplinary Teaching- This blog was started as a way of using journals and games in physical education class to enhance and connect the learning in math, language arts and science. Now that I am a science teacher I am finding ways to use physical activity to connect the learning in physical science.
