We went to the outdoor Break-O-Day learning center.
We had to find an area for our square of life
We investigated our squares for non living, living, plants, and
animals.
We used meter sticks, dowel rods, and yarn to make our square
of life.
We looked for living, nonliving, animals and plants in our square
of life.
First, we used meter sticks and put them on the ground to
measure. Then we put dowel rods into the ground at the
corners.
Next, we wrapped the yarn around the rods.
Then, we had to investigate our squares to make sure
that we make it perfectly.
After that, we had to work with our people the were
helping with our group.
