The past two days we've been working with the information we have gathered (as penguin scientists, of course) about the Rockhopper, King, Gentoo, Emperor, Chinstrap and Little Blue penguins to understand how they are the same and different from one another, and us! We created a graph to help us determine their size, unique features among other things, to help us organize this information and be able to use it quickly and easily. Looking ahead, we began to plan which penguin we are going to create a life-size paper model of here at school, and what data will we use to help us determine the size materials we need. Fun "hard thinking" here at school! To prepare for next week, we used our computer time today to focus in on each particular penguin and used our chart (yes, we hauled it with us to the computer lab) to depict what each student's chosen penguin looks like, using the computer art program, KidPix.  We even experimented with adding text to label our drawings.
