All About Giraffes

(8/25) 3rd grade UFO students presented their knowledge of giraffes through skits, informative posters, and brochures. They also had a little fun in centers this week! Students were challenged to design and build a giraffe habitat from legos making sure to include food, water, a predator, and a giraffe! Students were asked to accurately represent a giraffe's natural habitat. Students also were asked to sculpt a giraffe out of aluminum foil! Their giraffe had to stand and could not be more than six inches in height. Other activities included a giraffe art piece using oil pastels, a cinquain written with giraffes as the subject, and a class mural that will be displayed around the school! That's STEAM!! (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics!!)
