You just never know if you will win, who knows maybe this is your lucky time. Go to my previous post and scroll down to enter or just click here to get you there. Today's post will be nice and short. We worked on land forms and made an anchor chart together. They each made a land form poster and they came out cute! And something waaaaay off topic. I left this cute little surprise in our fridge for my husband. Can't wait to see his reaction when he open the fridge door. And of course I added something sarcastic in the end hehe. There is nothing more awkward than walking in a store with beer in your hand and trying to hide from possible students. I'm pretty sure many teachers can relate! HA!

Tavaly nagyon sokat küszködtem a felszíni formák tanításánál. Végül a Dombor Dínó lett az, ami alapján sokan megjegyezték a formák nevét és színét, valamint a rájuk jellemző tulajdonságokat. Forrás A gyerekek tavalyi munkái Éppen ezért az idén "ő" lett a teremdekorációnk egyik része, persze most még nem végleges, mivel az osztállyal közösen szeretném majd befejezni. Szókártyák és képek kerülnek majd a dínó köré, hogy még szemléletesebb legyen a dolog. A nyomtató segítségével poszterként nyomtattam ki, majd kartonra átmásoltam és befestettem. Krepp papírból van a háttér. Aminek pedig még jobban örülök az az, hogy pár napja találtam egy nagyon jó kis ötletet, mely még jobban szemlélteti a különböző felszíni formákat. Landform Flipbook-nak nevezte el a készítő, (bár ezt a kifejezést mi más vonatkozásban használjuk) nem tudom, mi lehetne a magyar megfelelője, de nem is az a lényeg, hanem hogy nagyon látványos. Ahogy lapozunk, úgy tűnik szemünk elé a megfelelő felszíni forma rajza és neve, érzékeltetve a magasságot is. Ízelítőül néhány kép, a teljes flipbook itt látható. Úgy gondolom, hogy ezek után nem lesz olyan gyerek, aki mégsem tudná megjegyezni. Legalábbis remélem. Aki most lesz harmadikos, az gyurmázhat, mint mi tavaly, vagy tépkedhet, de akár meg is eheti a felszíni formákat. A Pinterest-en találtam ezeket az ehető ötleteket. (Sajnos csak egy képnél tudtam rákeresni a forrásra.) Forrás És végül ehhez a földtani sütihez mit szóltok? Szintén a Pinterest-ről.

Hi teacher friends, Ancient Civilizations has to be my favorite curriculum to teach. I find the ancient world fascinating, with all the different traditions, inventions, rituals, building structures, gods and goddesses. I could probably spend the whole year just focusing on Egypt alone, with its pyramids, their social hierarchy with pharaohs, and interesting
