Week 2 of Practicum

This week during science, I had the opportunity to teach a science lesson to my 3rd graders. The lesson was on adaptations of animals--such as eagles eyesight, claws, and strong wings are all adaptations that help animals survive. We discussed how some animals hibernate and others migrate to survive. The kids really enjoyed talking about the different types of animals and their adaptations. Everyone was raising their hand to share in the discussion! I really enjoyed the lesson and felt like I really learned something. As I was teaching, there were things that I realized I hadn't known before I looked at the lesson. It was definitely a learning experience for me!
