Science Notebooking

We visited the science lab today to explore how to use science notebooks.  Next week we will begin our first science unit, Insects and Plants. We will use our notebooks to record our thinking. Today students received a fish to observe and record observations in notebooks. Students explored notebook aspects like; labels, title, date, picture, scientific drawings, written observations, and much more.  See pictures below!

Mrs. Hwande worked with our students to set up the Science Notebooks.

Each student got to look at his or her own fish.

Many students added color to their picture so it would be an accurate color depiction.

We sat with our learning partners.

Many students wrote what they saw about the fish and what the fish was doing.
