What do COOPERATION and SCIENCE have in common? Mrs. Smith's 1st graders have been applying cooperation skills they have practiced with Mrs. Crosby to plant zinnia seeds for scientific observation with Mrs. Braidy Davidson. We have been learning that cooperation is working together as a team to reach a goal. In order to cooperate we need to develop certain skills, which isn't always easy! We have practiced 4 distinct skills to help us cooperate:
1. We need to listen.
2. We need to speak up/talk/communicate.
3. We need to take turns.
4. We need to pay attention.
We will be documenting the zinnia's growing cycle as we write and draw diagrams of what we are doing and observing in our journals. Today we noticed two sprouts!
A huge congratulations to our FFA, especially officers who put in the time to complete the application! Ms. Carson is "beyond proud of the work that these kids have put in this year to get our chapter up and running." Being a GOLD chapter is a huge accomplishment for a first year program. For those unfamiliar, applications are judged on a rubric and then divided based on natural point splits. Our FFA made the top split!
