Medical Timeline

This week, we completed our fourth unit of the year with the central idea: 

Contributions from the past developed modern-day medicine.

As inquirers, we each picked several topics related to the history of medicine and applied our research skills to write summaries with visual representations. We also applied our thinking skills to consider the significance of various medical advancements and discoveries. 

Take a look at our very long timeline!

Below, you can also see our completed unit wall. 

We definitely explored many different topics!

Have a wonderful spring break, everyone!

 

Published Poems with Illustrations

In Grades 5 and 6, we have been developing our writing skills as poets. 

We each picked a poem from our collection of drafts that we were the proudest to publish for others to read.

Many of us wrote using extended metaphors throughout the entire poem to describe external or internal conflicts. 

Enjoy reading the poems along with the accompanying beautiful illustrations!

Have a great weekend!
