If you have peeked in our classroom you may have noticed we have a word wall filled with big juicy words. These words come from our research, books we read during meeting and just by having conversations. Anatomy is a new word that we have been hearing frequently.
What is anatomy? That's a big word.
All the parts that make up a creature!
Legs
Eyes
Claws
Tail
Mouth
Abdomen
The list goes on.. but do all creatures have the same parts?
BL created a fennec fox by creating each part one piece at a time.
After each part was created he put them altogether to create a fennec fox.
"My rattlesnake has two eyes and a different part on his tail." JW
"The part on his tail rattles when he doesn't want people near him." KKJ
Do all snakes have the same parts?
Did you know that there is about 1,500 different kinds of scorpions.
Some friends spent time in our new space creating different scorpions.
They noticed lots of differences and even practiced writing some of the scorpions names!
