Learning in the Library

Mrs. Minchin’s third graders are researching another animal!  This time the student learned about the aardvark.  Did you know the word aardvark means “dirt pig” in Dutch?  The students worked together to complete a graphic organizer about the aardvark’s ecosystem, food, enemies, and how it protects itself.  They used the articles in Heinemann’s First Encyclopedia and PebbleGo‘s animal database.  Now the students are using what they learned to write informational pieces are aardvarks.
