Convergent Thinking:
We changed up the Station Rotation a bit today with one last Medieval Activity-a reading exploration of The Court Jester in the Middle Ages. We also had our regular logic puzzles and Set, a logical thinking game, to work those convergent thinking skills.
Divergent Thinking:
We had a wonderful time creating and sharing St. Patrick's Day themed solutions to our March F2OE, including new uses for CD/DVDs, What to find at the end of the rainbow, a new Leprechaun suit, and a transformation of a 4 Leaf Clover. Super Creativity all around!
Self-Reflection:
We continued our Mindfulness Moments with a short guided relaxation. View it here: Still Quiet Place
Novel Study/Medieval Times:
We finished the rest of "Prince Brat" a video adaptation of The Whipping Boy. The kids were surprised by the ending. It wasn't what they were expecting!
Unit Study: Frogs
We had a brief introduction to frogs today, discussing why Frogs are an indicator species and what that means. We also chose our individual frogs to research. There is a Frog Resource page on the Target Glog. We'll begin research next week.
HW: Edmodo-Check out the Frog Glog to make sure you can find some information about your frog.
Until Next Week,
Mrs. Kraeger
