Prezi: Living and Nonliving things in an Environment

Living and Nonliving

Social Studies 3rd Grade: 

Educational Standard #2: Students will understand that organisms depend on living and nonliving things within their environment. Objective #1: Classify living and nonliving things in an environment.

Educational Technology Standard #5: Use technology tools (e.g., multimedia authoring, presentation, web tools, digital cameras, scanners) for individual and collaborative writing, communication, and publishing activities to create knowledge products for audiences inside and outside the classroom.

• Prezi was a really fun tool to work with, and I am excited to work with it again in the future. I like being able to link similar ideas together in one bubble, but then having the whole project revolve around a subject I am teaching. It is excellent!
• We will be reviewing this Prezi in class alongside our normal lesson. We will spend the majority of our time outside in the schoolyard classifying Living and Nonliving things in our "school environment."
• We will be making a huge classroom poster to separate Living and Nonliving things. I would like each of you to bring 4 pictures to school, 2 pictures of something Living and 2 pictures of something Nonliving. We will then work as a group to separate each of these.
