Discovery Year 6. Session 2. Week 6.

Discovery learners landed Session 2 powerfully. The Studio showcased its hard work through reflection, celebration, and an Exhibition of Learning. 

EXHIBITION OF LEARNING: E-SHIP QUEST 

Discovery and Explore entrepreneurs came together on Thursday to host an outdoor Trade Show. Learners presented the business ideas they developed throughout E-Ship Quest. Exhibition guests heard pitches, explored prototypes, and evaluated prices and profit margins. Learners competed to win categories such as Most Eco-Friendly Business, Best Branding, Most Original Business, and more!

EXHIBITION OF LEARNING: LETTERS TO A HERO

Learners welcomed their guests into the studio to glean insight into this Session’s Writers’ Workshop: Letters to a Hero. Discovery Writers highlighted the changes between their first, second, and third drafts while sharing the peer critiques they received. Next, Discoverers participated in a Socratic Discussion for guests to observe, reflecting on why they chose their Hero and how they imagined their Hero might respond. 

WORK CYCLE + BADGE CEREMONY

This Session, learners were asked, “What could you accomplish in this Session in the Work Cycle that would make you feel proud of yourself?” Discoverers shared badge goals, learning program goals, and Montessori goals they hoped to achieve, as well as how their perception of their capabilities would expand once they achieved the goal. On Friday at Closing Group, Discoverers celebrated a Fellow Traveler earning their first badge. 

Have a restful fall break, Discovery community!
