Discovery Year 5. Session 7. Week 3.

Discovery Heroes acted with intention and imagination in Fashion Quest and Art. The Studio experienced a big win in Work Cycle and celebrated with a reward on Friday!

WORK CYCLE 

At the start of Math Power Hour, Discoverers faced a challenging yet achievable goal—learners aimed to attain 985 math skills collectively. When Session 6 ended, the milestone remained just out of reach. Heroes had to choose: end Math Power Hour and receive no reward for their hard work or challenge themselves to continue working and keep Math Power Hour on the schedule in Session 7. Discoverers decided to take their fate into their own hands. The Studio exceeded its initial goal this week and earned a Free day, a chance for each Hero to create their schedule and customize their day. 

QUEST

Explore Heroes joined the Studio once again to lead Growing Curiosity Quest. Week 3’s focus was fashion! Discoverers learned about the complex sequence of mass-producing cotton shirts, the concept of sustainable clothing, and historical perspectives on fashion. Working in teams, this Quest challenged learners to design and create fashion collections. After choosing a theme, they crafted a few clothing items in the same style before photographing the final pieces. 

ART

In Tuesday’s Art Launch, learners explored the works of Colombian sculptor Nano Lopez. After gaining insight into the intricacies of his creative process, Discovery Heroes expressed their surprise at how much time it takes Lopez to complete one piece. Learners also noted his attention to detail. The launch challenged learners to bring this same intention to their artisanship this Session. 

We can’t wait to see what’s on the horizon in the second half of Session 7!
