Kinnick's 1st grade class did animal research projects. Kinnick's project was about jelly fish. They completed their research and wrote their reports at school. At home, they were supposed to make an "artifact" to share their project (anything from a poster to a powerpoint--whatever they could dream up!) They also needed to come up with an outfit to represent their animal. I was SO proud of Kinnick's hard work and creativity on this project... he came up with the idea for his poster and his costume completely on his own! (These kind of projects are not my favorite!) We shopped together to get his supplies. The only thing I helped him do was cut out the top part of his jellyfish. He did everything else completely on his own. They did two days of presentations--the first day they presented for other first grade classes and faculty members in the building. On the second day, families were invited to hear the presentations. I love watching this intelligent, creative boy do his thing...
