This spring, first-grade students at Bryant Ranch delved into an engaging Animal Unit, exploring various aspects of the animal kingdom through interactive activities. Each student chose an animal to research, creating detailed reports complete with beautiful illustrations of the animals in their natural habitats. This hands-on approach fostered a deeper understanding of animal life and sparked students’ creativity.
As part of the unit, students crafted dioramas showcasing their chosen animals in their unique environments. These colorful and informative displays allowed students to express their creativity and provided a visual complement to their research. To culminate their learning, each student presented their diorama to the class in an interactive session, confidently sharing their knowledge and answering questions from peers.
The grand finale of the unit was a field trip to Tucker Wildlife Sanctuary, where students observed local wildlife in their natural settings. This experience deepened their understanding of animal habitats and adaptations. Throughout the unit, students gained insights into the lives of animals and their roles in the ecosystem, displaying curiosity and passion for the natural world.
