3rd Grade - Today, students learned that Foundation means a usually stone or concrete structure that supports a building from underneath. Harrison Ford, today's explorer, performs real life rescues with his personal fleet of planes. Students drew a Surprise in the Middle picture for the warm up activity. The affective lesson focused on Kindness. Students were challenged to complete one act of kindness each day for the next seven days and keep a record. In Crystal Pond Woods, students continued to develop their divergent thinking skills as they created captions for simple drawings. Since we have been following Abel's Island and how Abel survived, students were given a survival challenge to complete.

5th Grade - Students learned that Opprobrious means shameful, infamous. John Pemberton's popular "brain tonic" later became Coca-Cola. These students also drew a Surprise in the Middle picture for the warm up activity. The affective lesson had students thinking about things they learned that no-one had to teach them along with more introspective thinking. They also laid out a plan to create a presentation for the first or second grade classes about E.coli. Our final activity was to learn how to write a bibliography for the ExploraVision competition.
