This week in social studies class, the 2nd and 3rd graders enjoyed some hands on learning with Mrs. Golay in connection to their unit on the world’s oceans, continents, the equator, prime meridian, and hemispheres. Using balloons to create their own globes, the students labeled each part with the correct terms as they had learned. This project was spread over 2 days, as the 2nd graders and 3rd-graders took turns helping each other. This cooperative learning activity not only resulted in creative globes but also fostered teamwork and a deeper understanding of geography.
