Year 4. Session 5. Week 6.

/in /by

This week in Discovery, Eagles planned and executed a successful Exhibition. They reflected on the session through 360 Feedback, wrote thank you notes to heroes who supported the studio this session, and celebrated challenges, growth, and achievements that happened this session.

CORE SKILLS

This week in Core Skills, Eagles focused on completing their biggest goals for the session. In week one, Eagles set their biggest goals, breaking down steps for how they would make progress by day, week, and session. They also celebrated achieving their Excellent Goal for Math Power Hour this session, resulting in a “Free Day” on Friday in which Eagles could choose how to spend their day while following the contract and studio guardrails.

QUEST

This week in Quest, Eagles showcased their work by transforming the studio into a Marine Science Museum. When entering the studio, lights were turned down low and blue light covered the space. Data sheets and experiments were displayed all around the studio. After receiving their tickets to the museum, tour guides led guests through 4 exhibits. Exhibition guests interacted with creatures of the deep sea, making blue light glasses and exploring paper maché. They were surprised when invited to dissect black drum fish to learn about the fish’s anatomy. In the coral reef exhibit, guests were invited to create a coral reef of their own.

WRITERS’ WORKSHOP AND WORD WORLD

Eagles in Writers’ Workshop submitted their final persuasive essays.

Eagles in Word World practiced rhyming words through games. They also focused on reading through Lexia.

 

FREE DAY!

As a celebration for completing their Excellent Goal in Math Power Hour, Eagles in Discovery had a full day of free time. Many chose to work on Core Skills, making themselves comfortable around the studio to collaborate. Others chose to play gaga ball outside or walk in the orchard. There was a movie about Octopuses that the majority of the studio enjoyed, and they were treated to popcorn. Another part of the free day was choosing a time for snack and lunch, fully allowing learners to listen to their bodies, as well as enjoy their meals anywhere in the studio. A group of Eagles enjoyed making sculptures that will be ready to paint when we return next session. The studio felt peaceful and joyful as Eagles celebrated safely and respectfully.
