Science

• In class, we talked about the 5 different types of vertebrates.  Turn to the page in your notebook with the 5 Fingers.  Under each of the fingers, write down a few characteristics of that group.  You can find the information that you need in the following video.  At first, you will review information on invertebrates.  Then, the video will talk about vertebrates.  The narrator will tell you to pause the video to read about the different types of vertebrates.  This is the information that you will need to put behind each of the 5 fingers in your notebook!
• Read over the bottom flap on the "Gimme 5 Vertebrates" page in your science notebook.
• Next, read the short page in your folder on Reptiles.  (Some of you were able to go ahead and glue it into your science notebook.)  Read through the page and then answer the questions.  Both of these will go in your science notebook.... go ahead and glue them down!
• Now, watch this video on reptiles:
• The Robinsons were headed for Australia but were stranded in South Asia.  I want you to do some research to find out about the reptiles found in Australia and in South Asia. Write about them in your science notebook, and we'll talk about them in class!
