Explore Year 5. Session 7. Week 2.

The Explorers got into flow this week while they worked hard to make progress on their session-long goals and celebrated one another with call-outs for perseverance and kindness.

QUEST

The learners in Explore are creating their own Personal Passion Quest in Session 7. They brainstormed a topic and received feedback from their studio-mates and planned out 9 challenges to complete and reflect on over the course of the session.

 

GROWING CURIOSITY

In week 2 of Session 7, another group of Explorers guided Discovery learners through a Quest on baking. The Explorers launched discussions and presented challenges for the the learners in Discovery that explored the main ingredients in baking, how to make a recipe, and finally how to bake!

 

BOOK CLUB

The learners in Explore have started a book club in Session 7. They are reading Momo Arashima Steals the Sword of the Wind by Misa Sugiura. They read a few chapters last week to prepare for their discussion of the book in week 2. They drank tea and reflected on the action-packed chapters, the characters, and what they think will happen next!

 

FRIDAY OUTING

The Explore learners hiked at Shoal Creek on Friday. They excitedly interacted with wildlife, cautiously balanced on river rocks, and joyfully concluded their outing in the tree house in Pease Park.

 

LUNCH CLUB

The Explorers hosted their first Lunch Club on Friday! Two Explorers planned the menu and the whole studio supported each other to prepare it. They made watermelon agua fresca, avocado toast, and had celery and carrots with peanut butter.
