Our Globes and Our Creatures


We are very busy in third grade. We have so many exciting things going on that we would love to share. We are working hard on our globes. The students have colored and labeled the continents and most of them have glued them on their world. They are looking more like Earth each day. Friday we hope to start putting the Equator, Prime Meridian and the North and South Pole in the correct locations.

Our brine shrimp have finally hatched. We have many tiny creatures in our habitat. The students have been making many observations about them. They are clear, white, tiny, move quickly, look like they have flippers, and like to eat algae. Tomorrow they will have another surprise... our tadpole has arrived.
