Mrs. Rhoads’ 1st grade students at Pickaway Elementary became scientists and researched penguins. They read multiple nonfiction texts about penguins and identified numerous nonfiction text features while learning cool facts about penguins. They composed their own nonfiction book filled with facts they learned about penguins. They used their new knowledge to compose a writing piece to share with the class. On the last day other penguin unit, the students evolved as scientists and did multiple experiments to observe and gather data about penguins. Students experimented how penguins waddle verses tobogganing, how the oil from preening helps make their feathers waterproof with placing water droplets on a fully colored penguin with crayons verses a non-colored penguin, measuring to identify who was taller, shorter, or the same height as an Emperor Penguin, and observing how the extra layer of blubber helps penguins swim in the extreme cold temperatures of the Antarctic. First Graders loved learning about penguins!
