🛑 Pre-Work: This activity is meant to serve as a reflective activity after students have been given an opportunity to observe the things that make up land (rocks, soil and sand). Allow students to observe and feel the samples. Ask questions like, "How are these similar or different?" and "Can you describe the color and texture?". Spray water on each object and ask students, "How does water change the object?" ⭐Summary: Students will use the camera to show what they observed. Then they will use the voice tool to describe what they observed. They will also practice tracing key vocabulary words. ⏳ Focus mode has been applied to this activity to allow students to focus on the content using only the tools they need. 🔑 Key Vocabulary: observe, land, rocks, soil, sand, describe ⭐This is a supplemental activity that can be used in conjunction with your district curriculum. ⭐This activity is best used whole group on an interactive board where students come up and manipulate the objects in the activity or on individual devices in focused small groups (especially for any voice or screen recording/video activities). 🛑 Always preview videos to be sure they fit your audience/needs.
