Youth Group, Continental Drift, and Other Activities
We had many fun activities leading up to spring break! These photos show what we did during the weeks before. The first several photos show what the students did during the youth group lock-in. The 6th graders that were present did an awesome job constructing a gingerbread "playground."
We do many different activities to explore our vocabulary words for the week. During this activity, students matched the words with the definitions held by a partner. Then they wrote down the definitions on the board.
During our studying of Mexico, students worked with partners to complete a web-quest that had them explore the government, resources, and economy of different regions in Mexico.
We have been studying plate tectonics in science. As part of that unit, students put together a "puzzle" of what scientists predicted the continents looked like thousands of years ago due to continental drift. Students studied fossil evidence and how that supports the ideas of this drift.
In school, students wrote down what they think of when thinking about God. We talked about how God is both just and merciful, and we applied this to our stories about the Babylonian exile of the Israelites.
