It's really pretty neat, the sense of unity brought to the kids by this project of collecting all the change. At the last count, we had about $850 worth of pocket change. That's not bad! It's just fun watching the kids interact, working as a team, and getting some great experience with something bigger than themselves.
Today we also learned about the animal adaptation of camouflage. The students seemed to enjoy creating little "camo-cats" to blend in with the classroom. It worked so well that tomorrow we just might make more camouflage animals. Just wait until next week, when it's time to dissect owl pellets!
