3rd Grade - We learned the word Environment means the air, water, minerals, organisms, and all other external factors surrounding and affecting a given organism at any time. Today's investigator, Sylvester Stallone, was kicked out of 10 schools for fighting. The warm up activity had students completing a series of Plexer puzzles (common words or phrases put into picture form). In Crystal Pond Woods, we continued our divergent thinking work. Today students had the opportunity to use webbing for brainstorming and organizing their thoughts. The final activity was to finish their island brochures.
5th Grade - Our vocabulary word for today was Inception which means start or beginning. The investigator, Milton Hershey struggled until he created a caramel candy everyone liked. Students completed a series of Plexer puzzles for the warm up activity. With the Exploravision contest finished, we were able to get back to the affective (social/emotional) lessons. Today the focus was on developing their own opinion about issues. The rest of the afternoon had students creating videos and posters that will be turned in to QR codes so they can share their inventions with others.
