5th grade student is bringing awareness to #SDG15. Koalas are endangered mostly due to wildfires and global warming. He created a 3D model using our #MakerBot to help remind us our choices matter. @MrsMSchaller @woschools #GlobalGoals

Another great connection using @SkypeScientist with a coastal geologist and our 4th graders. We learned that though we don’t have a long walk to water we still have some concerns. Great connection to our book #ALongWalktoWater. @woschools @MrsMSchaller

Student tweet:
Leg 2 of the Amazing Race-We made a travel video about Machu Picchu in Peru. Hard work but worth it! Our 5th grade group had to record voices, take pictures and research about Machu Picchu. It was time consuming but really fun. #MachuPicchu ❤️⛰️

A tweet written by my student about our 5th grade unit :)

[Megan Schaller @MrsMSchaller]

Hi! 5th grade student here. We are grouped with other students for an assignment in G&T. We’re participating in the Amazing Race! All contestants go through a series of obstacles to challenge our minds. This unit is exciting, but slightly complicated. Many enjoy it, though! ❤️
