5th Grade - These students learned the word Modicum means a moderate amount. Their explorer Conrad Hubert, started the Ever Ready Battery Company when a friend suggested he help create a flower pot that would light up. Mr. Hubert figured if a flower pot could light up, why not a hand torch? Students created a Loosen Up drawing for the warm up activity. The affective lesson focused on truth and consequences. The rest of the morning was spent working on the Exploravision project.
4th Grade - Today students learned that Indignation means anger, especially over something that's unfair. Albert Einstein although he invented the atomic bomb was actually a man of peace. Students listened to directions to draw a Loosen Up picture for the warm up activity. The affective lesson focused on Maslow's Hierarchy of needs which should be met if a student wants to become successful. Each student then drew a picture of what they would like their team's "robot" to look like. Everyone then had to persuade the rest of the team that their ideas was the best "robot" to build. Next week we will build the creatures.
2nd Grade - This class learned that successful people demonstrate courage. Each student created their own shield to demonstrate an act of courage they completed.
