October 12-16 Session 2


Session 2 has brought many new learning opportunities for our Eagles.  

We began civilization on Tuesday, and the Eagles loved it! We read stories from the past, learning history and having discussions about our ancestors' lives. The Eagles made connections, shared stories they have heard and learned about the first nomads. 

A few Eagles chose to complete Civilization Challenge #1, sharing artifacts and history about their family. 

Tuesday, the Eagles split into groups to learn about Poetry and teach their studio-mates about their findings. 

 

On Thursday, Eagles learned about Metaphors and were challenged to write their own. 

In Core Skills, Eagles continue to work on SMART goals to focus their learning time.  As they make their goals, conversations are had about how their goals will help them progress towards Badges. 

Session 2's Quest is E-Ship! Eagles are placed in groups to learn about entrepreneurship and create their own business.  The eagles will present their business's product or service at the Session 2 Exhibition on November 13th. 

We laughed at all the Eagles who said they were sore on Wednesday from Tuesday's PE game, and know we had some sore legs on Friday.  These Eagles did a 12 minute Tabata workout of lunges, jumping jacks, and step-ups.  They showed great sportsmanship and never quit! 

In Art, we are spending as much time outside as possible, using what we can find in nature to create. This week, Eagles went on a nature scavenger hunt and created a clay imprint of a treasure they found.  They also practiced the technique of blending chalk pastels of leaves. 

 

My favorite part of the day is watching the Eagles work and enjoy learning together!
