Discovery Year 6. Session 6. Week 5.

Discoverers landed Session 6 with gratitude and reflection. Here’s a glimpse into how the studio connected with their work in Week 5. 

WORK CYCLE

Discoverers checked in with their Big Time goals and reflected on their personal experiences of working towards a long-term aim for the whole Session. Many Discoverers reflected that they wished their goal had been more achievable, while others shared their plan for challenging themselves even further in Session 7. As a community, learners expressed and processed moments of pride, failure, learning, and growing with their Session 6 Big Time goals. 

QUEST

In Quest, Discovery Biologists began the exciting process of designing their experiments. Working alongside Fellow Travelers in trios, learners discussed what elements of science sparked their curiosity most. From there, Heroes practically planned what would be exciting and achievable to experiment on while determining instructions and procedures for their lab trio to follow. 

WRITERS’ WORKSHOP

In Week 5, Discoverers focused on the final stage of their science-based fiction pieces: publishing! After receiving peer critiques from Fellow Travelers and reviewing the excellent work of others, Discovery writers began to title and illustrate their stories. On Friday, learners proudly shared their work with the community and listened intently to hear their studio mates’ creative writing. 

Cheers to an excellent Session 6. We look forward to even more growth and learning in Session 7!
