Animal Family Research

Mrs. D'Elia visited us in our classroom this morning to help us with a new project.  We are researching animals to create a dictionary of animals.  In order to make the book we need to find out about each animal by searching for evidence about which animal family each animal belongs to.

Today we learned how to better use the books and resources available to us.  Mrs. D'Elia taught us about the title page, the table of contents and the index.  AND we learned that not only can we search for information in a book, but we can use applications on the iPad and look through magazines and articles.

We will be working more with Mrs. D'Elia and Mr. Callahan as we create an electronic presentation of our research!
