The Narwhal part 1


Through our research on the Arctic Ocean we learned about a very cool animal, the Narwhal.  Our class decided that we would need to learn more about this animal.
 
We also knew that if we were going to build a narwhal, then he had to have an ocean to live in.  The children signed up for the job that they wanted to do. 
 

 
 

We started by measuring the wall to see how much paper we needed.

 
 Then we painted water onto the paper.



 
Finally, we crumpled the paper up to make waves.

 
 
Once the twilight group finished, we worked on the sunlit zone and the ocean floor.  
 



 
 
We used sand from the sand table to make the ocean floor.
