Loose parts are great at enabling curiosity, creativity, and imagination. In the image above these recycled, empty, two-liter bottles can be used to make self sustaining ecosystems. (Please refer to the article "Self-Sustaining Ecosystem Project").  ]]> 2021-10-24 04:10:13 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838712600 Self-Sustaining Ecosystem Project gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838720949 Step by step instructions on how to build your own ecosystems!]]> 2021-10-24 04:22:13 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838720949 Nature/loose parts/rocks/pebbles gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838722107 Natural materials (can also be loose parts) are great at provoking play, creativity, curiosity, and imagination! They are free material and you can even give the kids a little bit of out door time to scavenge for rocks! Allowing children outdoor time has many benefits on its own :)]]> 2021-10-24 04:24:04 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838722107 Fish/living thing/organism gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838731812 For the classroom ecosystems the teacher will need to purchase small fish (10 cents at pet smart) for the students ecosystems. 

Fish are great for the curriculum framework because they allow students to observe, analyze, and compare the differences between living and nonliving things in the 2-liter ecosystems! ]]> 2021-10-24 04:37:51 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838731812 Plants/natural material/nature gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838736177 Plants will be used for the upper half of the ecosystems they can create! 

Plants are also amazing for the curriculum framework because students will be able to watch them grow and change (learn about a plants basic needs).]]> 2021-10-24 04:43:16 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838736177 Construction paper/loose parts gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838740929 Not only is construction paper good for decoration, it can used and purposed for many things! Definitely a good material to have in a makers space!]]> 2021-10-24 04:49:37 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838740929 Markers gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838743636 Markers are great for drawing, writing, decorating, any craft that needs a pop of color! Markers allow kids to express themselves through their works of art, and drawing is also stress relieving/relaxing for some!

Markers will be needed to decorate the construction paper that will be put on the bottles of their ecosystems.]]> 2021-10-24 04:53:18 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838743636 My own "Thinking Routine" gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838780131 Students can draw their own living and nonliving things then categorize it on a student drawn Venn diagram! This is also great for the teacher because they can access how much the students have learned, and it gives students their own creative liberty on what they want to draw!]]> 2021-10-24 05:41:11 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838780131 Ecosystems for kids gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838786450 This short 10 minute long video is perfect for explaining what an ecosystem is, what nonliving and living things are, and explains different types of ecosystems. 

Overall I would say this is a great end of lesson debriefing video because it is short, simple, and displays the main concepts of the ecosystem!]]> 2021-10-24 05:49:28 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838786450 Producers, Consumers, and Decomposers Overview gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838790144 This video would be great to have on in the background while the students build and assemble their ecosystems! As said in the title, this video explains producers, consumers, and decomposers all while giving examples!]]> 2021-10-24 05:54:09 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838790144 Play dough/ sensory based learning gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838795011 Play dough is great for strengthening fine motor skills, boosting creative thinking/imagination, and much more! This play dough can also be used to build living and nonliving things, fun and educational! (Please refer to "My own thinking 2" for the full overview on how play dough can be incorporated into an activity)!]]> 2021-10-24 06:00:25 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838795011 My own "Thinking Routine" 2 gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838796683 With the provided play dough, children can be put into small groups (to allow for better engagement). Students can create living or nonliving things with the dough, then have the students guess what it is, and if it's living what it needs!]]> 2021-10-24 06:02:56 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838796683 My own "Thinking routine" gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838801138 Eye spy around the classroom! The teacher can put up pictures/images of living and nonliving things. From there the students will be partnered and explained the game of eye spy. One person guessing/observing, the other person explains looks, characteristics, needs of thing in the image. This activity is great because it allows the students to get up and moving, which can increase focus and brain activity!]]> 2021-10-24 06:08:36 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838801138 Print out images of living and nonliving things gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838805789 Pictures also allow students to associate and connect with what they are learning! Print out pictures and images are important for the last "my own thinking routine" activity, if you want to learn more feel free to click the last tab under "My own Thinking Routine"!]]> 2021-10-24 06:14:57 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838805789 Key terms: gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838808615 -Bitoic

Not only does is appeal to visual and auditory learning styles, but it is great because these books tell educational stories! Your students can grab a comfy spot on the carpet and take a brain break while you read them a story!]]> 2021-10-24 06:29:27 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838818352 Crayons gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838821385 Great for self expression, or in this case drawing ecosystems :)]]> 2021-10-24 06:31:46 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838821385 Pencils gdd7786 https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838823706 Great for jotting down notes, scribbling, writing! In this case they can be used for observing/examining the pictures and information students have learned. Also will be used for observing the changes in the plants in the "terrarium" activity listed in the experiences tab!]]> 2021-10-24 06:34:37 UTC https://padlet.com/gdd7786/6k70i8rdkrnvnsdg/wish/1838823706
