The Rainforest

The Fishcreek students studied the rainforest and become experts at using technology tools for research and to demonstrate what they have learned. Mrs. Tiffany Harris began the unit with a study of living and nonliving things.  Using the Smart Board the students will able to drag images of living and nonliving thing into the correct category. They used the internet, books and magazine to investigate animals and plant life. Much of this information was used to create graphs and charts with excel. In order to illustration what they have learned they created Kidpix, PowerPoint and Inspiration projects to share their new knowledge with their teacher and classmates. During their time in the AT&T Classroom, the class took a field trip to the Kent State University greenhouse. At the green house they were able to see many of the plants they have been studying.
