Morning Minutes – Earth Day Activity
Mrs. Sherwood’s and Mrs. Adams’ Morning Minutes classes began an Earth Day activity called Cookie Excavating. Students “drilled” for chocolate chips while mapping how the cookie (land) was affected. Tomorrow, they will discuss how excavation disturbed habitats and connect it to human impact on the Earth.
