We had a marvelous Monday of learning!
Unit Study:
We finished our Amelia Earhart-More than a Flier book. The kids were disappointed that her last flight was unsuccessful. We followed that up with an interesting BrainPop Jr. video about Amelia. The kids were surprised that she attempted the Around-the-World flight twice.
We used our critical thinking and reading skills to solve a Crossword Puzzle, all about Amelia and flight. The kids extended their convergent thinking with a Word Work activity about flying. They had fun figuring out the puzzles!
We used our divergent thinking to transform an airplane into something else. The kids were really creative! Check out their ideas in the photos below!
Stations:
We stretched our convergent thinking with two different games: "GoGetter" and "Q-Bitz". The kids loved the challenge of these logical thinking games!
Until next time,
Dr. Kraeger
