How did the students prepare for their stalls/presentations?
Advertisements
Solution
The students prepared for their stalls/presentations in earnest. They began collecting a lot of information about their topic using their science textbook, their school library, and the Internet. They shared and discussed this information in their groups. Then they decided the exact activity for their stall - whether they would build and display a model, give a demonstration, present their project through posters, or simply exhibit a collection.

Life is a gift to be used every day,
Not to be smothered and hidden away,
It isn’t a thing to be stored in the chest
Where you gather your keepsakes and treasure your best;
It isn’t a joy to be sipped now and then
And promptly put back in a dark place again
Life is a gift that the humblest may boast of
And one that the humblest may well make the most of
Get out and live it each hour of the day,
Wear it and use it as much as you may,
Don’t keep it in niches and corners and grooves,
You’ll find that in service its beauty improves.
