SKL2 The students will compare similarities and differences in groups of organism Communication and collaboration Critical thinking, problem solving, and decision making Technology operation and concepts Research and information fluency  In this lesson the students will view finger, hand and foot prints of themselves, classmates and animals to discover that everyone has their own special prints. They will also learn that our prints are sometimes used to discover who we are, which way we were going and what we have touched. To begin the lesson and hook the students before they enter into the classroom prints will be place on the floor in the class (The prints will be stamped on the floor with paint that was left on the counter as if they got in the paint and made a mess all over the room). The door and the window will be open. The problem is who made these prints? Was it an animal or human? This problem is relevant to my students because it will inform them that everyone have their own special print including animals. **Instructional activities ** ||  The students will start their investigations by first making prints of the fingers and hands. We will discuss what we see on our hands. They will look closely under magnifying glasses to discover the differences by counting the lines, circles and swirls. They will compare their prints with their classmates and write similarities and differences. Next we will investigate animal foot prints by using technology. The students will give ideas of the animal they think come through the window and left the prints in the classroom. Each animal that the students suggested will be viewed and their paw prints will be observed. After the web search, each group of students will be given a copy of an animal’s prints that I have places around the room. Each group will have a different print. They will have to check each print to find the match. To assess the students they will have to tell the characteristic of their animal’s prints and which animal does it belong to. The students will also have to write a story about their animal and why they think they came into the classroom.
