Gracyn continued the unit on natural resources today with a lesson on fast and slow changes to the Earth. We discussed things that happen quickly like earthquakes, floods, and volcano eruptions, as well as slower changes such as weathering and erosion. She also watched a short BrainPop Jr. video on weather and erosion and answered questions on the lesson in her science book. We began discussing our next project of hatching chicken eggs. She put the eggs in the incubator and we discussed how long it takes the chicks to hatch. She marked on a calendar how long the eggs will incubate and what day they will hatch.
