{Plant Lifecycle ThingLinks}

Here are some shots of the Twosies classifying plants. They did a great job and began our learning of the different plant families and types.





We ended our unit on Plant Lifecycles by creating ThingLinks!
We tried using the iPad app, but had better luck navigating the program through the computers.


The Twosies had to research the lifecycle of a plant of their choice and learned some interesting facts along the way. They then had to choose an image of their plant and insert "targets" on their image. When you roll your mouse over these targets, you will learn about the different lifecycle stages, see a video of the plant, and learn some facts.

{Animal Lifecycle PowToons}

The Twosies had loads of fun sharing their knowledge of animal life cycles through an online program called PowToon. PowToon allows you to create animated video presentations!



Check out their PowToon videos and learn about the life cycles of several different amphibians and insects!
