Highlanders reading group

Today the highlanders read 'A safe home for snails'.  We are working on our learning goal of reading for information and researching for information.  Before we read the story we were asked to research two things - predators for snails and what snails like to eat.  When we had found those things, we arranged our ideas into a tree map.








Using the information we had found, we read the article about making a safe home for flax snails.  Using what we had collected prior to reading and the information contained in the text, we are now going to design a safe home for a snail to meet their needs for food and protection from predators.
