Algebraic Thinking:
Since we were all together today, we worked on a Math Stars. They did a great job using their critical thinking and math skills to solve a variety of math problems.
Unit Study:
We continued our research and work on our Genius Hour Projects. Next time, the kids will have another Peer Coaching session to get final feedback before they finish up their projects.
Stations:
We used our divergent thinking to create solutions for an Ungifted F2OE. Check out the results-incredible! The kids used their convergent thinking to solve logic puzzle. They are getting good at this!
Affective Skills:
We choose a big goal to work on and developed a "Goals Ladder" with smaller tasks to help us get ready to reach the big goal. We also continued our Mindfulness work with videos about the impact of Fear vs. Anxiety on our bodies and how to reset ourselves when the "Fight or Flight" response kicks in.
Novel Study:
We read a bit more of our book. Donovan has gotten himself into quite a bit of trouble, but possibly has a way out-blackmail!
Enjoy the February Break!
