Unit Study:
We continued our research and project work for Genius Hour. They seem to be making good progress, moving toward finished projects. We have two more class work sessions before projects are due.
Novel Study:
We read a bit independently, analyzed and evaluated, and read a bit together. The kids are enjoying this book, especially the fun improv activities!
Algebraic thinking:
We are all moving forward learning new concepts that help us solve increasingly more challenging equations.
Stations:
We stretched our convergent thinking skills with logic puzzles, choosing from Perplexors or Grid-Style puzzles. We also lit our creative fires with an F2OE for February.
Affective Skills:
We continued our work on big dreams, with a wonderful book called Dreams. The kids are working on writing poems to describe their big dream and then will illustrate that poem with artwork next week.
Our Mindfulness Practice was important today, since we had lots of extra energy with all the rainy days we've had lately!
