Learning Intention
What did you learn today?
We are going to help our grade 1 and 2 buddies understand why there is a whole day of night in the winter and a whole day of day in the summer in the Arctic. 
How did you show what you learned?
We created questions that would help us begin researching this concept so that we can understand why the length of a day changes.
What do you need to learn next?
We need to continue to understand what is happening and then create a model, video, poster, etc. so we can explain it to our little buddy.
