Way Down Deep in the Deep Blue Sea

Next week we will be taking our annual trip to the aquarium.  To gear up we will be learning about a different sea animal each day.  I look forward to this unit each year because it makes me think that spring/summer is right around the corner even if it is not.

Up first is the Dolphin.  Our aquarium has 6 dolphins. The kiddos look forward to seeing this animal the most.

Both of these books gave us lots of information about dolphins.

We used an are, have, can chart to help us document all we have learned about dolphins. 

In the next couple of weeks we will be working on using our anchor charts to write information books about different animals. Here is a sneak speak of what our little books will look like.
