Bodine fourth graders have been studying the classification of animals this six weeks. Along with our discussion in the classrooms, the students enjoyed sorting pictures of animals into vertebrates and invertebrates in the science lab.
As a culmination to the unit on classification, the students were able to have fun identifying animals based on written clues and puzzle pictures using the Smartboard. Using the website, www.kidscom.com/games/animal/animal.html, the students were able to use the board as they would the computer. Each child got a chance to choose an animal category and difficulty level. After reading the question and answer, a guess was made about the animal in the puzzle. They all did a great job!
