The students and I spent this week discussing natural resources and how people around the world use these natural resources. The students figured out that natural resources are used for building homes and other structures, are used for eating, can help protect people/animals and can also be saved and reused. We spent the week reading several different versions of The Three Little Pigs and compared/contrasted them. Groups of students then made models of the pigs' houses out of natural resources (grass, wood sticks, and crushed up brick/sand). Below are the student's creations. They did a great job working as teams to complete the project!

AuthorMy name is Erin Webb and I am going into my fourteenth year teaching. I taught kindergarten in Summerville, SC for one year before moving to Rock Hill after getting married. Since being in Rock Hill, I have been teaching first grade at Rosewood Elementary International School. This will be my sixth year teaching using the Dual Language Model. I will be team teaching with Monsieur Joseph McFadden. I am very excited about what the coming year has to offer! Archives
