Project Description: Students observed patterns of the sun, moon, and stars and made predictions about astrological bodies. This assisted in understanding standard time intervals such as hours, days, and months. These understandings were used to create a calendar to keep track of important events in the classroom community such as birthdays and holidays from various traditions and cultures.
With great care and attention over many weeks, students have created different solutions to solve the problem of keeping track of time. These portfolios have taken home by students. If your child is in first grade at A2 STEAM, please invite them to share their portfolio with you and explain all of the learning that has occurred as a consequence of this project.
