Paper Sculptures and Components of Weather

Today was very successful!  The students used their creativity, problem solving skills, and their knowledge about weather to create beautiful, interesting, awesome, paper sculptures.
We started off talking about the vocab word component that goes with their weather unit. We listed the different components of weather. After Mrs. Clifford told me this theme last week we decided paper sculptures was something that would apply to it perfectly. I found images of different paper sculptures online that would give the students ideas as to what they could make. We went through my power point and the students drew the different ideas that they liked and wanted to make. Mrs. Clifford helps me teach and is great about talking about information that I might have missed. I really appreciate this because sometimes I have so much to think about that I miss some things.

Side note...
One students asked who the man was at the back of the class. I told them Doug(who came and observed me today) was here to make sure I was doing a good job and that he worked at BYU. After I told the student this they said "oh he doesn't have to worry you are doing a Great job!" haha that made me feel good.

I have a lot of photos to show their work. I keep forgetting to take videos. I will remember next week.

  1. Those sculptures look so fun! And from talking to Doug, I think he agrees with your student. You're doing a great job!
