Inventors

We learned about inventors the last couple of days. My students learned about Benjamin Franklin, Garrett Morgan, Wright Brothers,George Washington Carver, Alexander Graham Bell & Thomas Edison.

Here is our week in pictures!

After we discussed facts about these famous inventors, my students wrote and drew about them.


We played a super fun game! I gave each partners a set of cards with clues about the different inventions. They needed to walk around the room and find the invention for each card. They had fun and they were reviewing all the concepts we learned without even thinking about it ;).
 

A Craftivity is always a most! We made one for Benjamin Franklin to organize and describe some of his inventions.

We ended the week writing a book about all the facts we learned about all these famous inventors!

Texas

The last couple of day my students learned all about Texas. It's one of my favorite units. As you know, I love to make hands-on activities and this unit is not an exception.
Here are some pictures of my students work.
My students made the state flower using their fingerprints and purple paint!

 They made the state flag using red, white and blue tissue paper.

This is my favorite activity from this unit.. The cowboys & cowgirls! 

They decorated the cowboys clothing using the Texas symbols!
