In today's class, the students had to make a hypothesis on what would happen if a seed didn't get sunlight/water/air. This was a very hard concept for first graders because they needed to think on their own what would happen and draw their guess or hypothesis. Despite the gestures and drawings, this was especially difficult for the Japanese class to understand because of the language barrier. Therefore, to ensure that the students understood what they did in science class today I made it a point during closing circle time to review what we did. I also made sure that the other first grade teacher did the same during her closing circle time so that the students understood we are experimenting to see what would happen to the seeds if it didn't get sunlight/water/air.
