The Polar Adventure Comes to and End



Wow! What a great adventure we have had exploring the North and South Poles. We have learned so much about survival, adaptation, migration, hibernation, and animals from these polar regions. The projects students created were incredible. After we finish presenting the projects the players will bring them home. If you need to pick up a project please do so by Friday. Once again, thank you for your help and all of your creativity. YOU are amazing parents and an oustanding team to work with! :)


Check out the team as they are using their survival gear to handle the harsh conditions of the Antarctic chill. As we took down the polar cruise ship... the team set up "camp" by rolling out sleeping bags, pulling out flashlights, and eating their survival snacks- I love how some of the players chose to survive on fruit roll ups, listen to music on their cell phones, and of course read some of their favorite chapter books!!! Reading while surviving... now you know they are die hards!!! You just have to love first graders! :)
