Catch WSMS Wolves fall athletes in action this week
Mrs. Brittany Cockrell's 6th grade science students participated in a creative and engaging activity today called "Play-Doh Personalities," and the results were amazing!
Inspired by an idea from Tiffany Clemins,(MCBOE Tech & Academic Coach) students selected an animal they felt connected to based on its personality or characteristics. They then brought their chosen animal to life using Play-Doh and answered reflection questions explaining why they identified with that animal.
Not only was this a great opportunity for students to express themselves and build classroom community, but it also incorporated important science concepts. Students identified their animals as biotic organisms, discussed adaptations and characteristics that help them survive, explored their habitats, and examined how they interact with both biotic and abiotic factors in their environment.
The creativity, thoughtfulness, and enthusiasm displayed by our students were incredible. It was wonderful to see them fully engaged in creating, explaining, and sharing their ideas with their classmates. Activities like this help strengthen relationships, encourage self-expression, and reinforce science learning in meaningful ways.
Mrs. Cockrell shared, "I'm really proud of them already, and I'm excited to see where this group goes this year. They definitely made my teacher heart happy today!"
Check out some of their fantastic Play-Doh creations in the photos below!
