3rd Grade - Sequester was the word of the day. It means to remove and hold in isolation. Today's investigator was Cher. The warm up activity was a Quotation Quizzler. Our affective lesson focused on caring. Our friends at Crystal Pond Woods played a divergent thinking game called Word Wiz. Finally, we revisited our Polynesian Island and started a research project that will take us several weeks to complete.

5th Grade - Cartographer was the 5th grade word of the week. A cartographer is someone who makes maps or charts. The investigator was George Washington Carver, who invented over 300 uses for the peanut. A Quotation Quizzler was the warm-up activity. Our affective lesson focused on Tolerance and Empathy. We began a new study in structures: Expansion of Technology. With this study, students will be participating in the Exploravision competition put on by Toshiba. The remainder of afternoon was spent working on projects for the Lewis and Clark Expedition.
