Hello,
My name is Kasandra Stoudt and I have created this weebly as a part of a course assignment to create a science unit for an elementary level classroom. My unit of study focuses on the water cycle. The students will cover the basics of the cycle, and then delve into each of its three main components; Evaporation, Condensation, and Precipitation, to learn more about how our water circulates through the environment. They will wrap up the unit with a review of everything we have covered, playing games to refresh their memories before taking a final summative test. This unit was created for a first grade level. It breaks down the concepts while teaching tier 2 and tier 3 vocabulary. The students will actively engage in their learning, as most of the lessons include an inquiry in which they will test the concepts they are learning about and think about adaptations to test independently. This unit could also be easily adapted to other elementary grade levels, and still keep the students engaged in the information being covered.
