Hello team, here there is the "Shaking the Tree" Learning Experience. Hope you enjoy it. I am adding a __**glossary**__ with the most common animals we should be finding. Our guidance to our children is about the general names, we don´t need to go onto scientific vocabulary, but of course we need to know some facts about the Living Things names. Please ask me about any doubts or concerns on this planning. I am also attaching the __checklist for Unit of Inquiry **3,**__ the research skills as well as the attributes and attitudes I considered can be assessed with this lesson. The **__Raising awar__**... is for the closing of the activity. Just print one, or two if you are doing team teaching for this lesson. Adri looks like somebody deleted this file, so here it is again :-) I wrote Line of Inq. 1, but it is **3**. oops!
