As students and I meet for our research project focus lesson this morning, I'll ask the following questions:
- What should we do to make sure that our exhibits entertain, inform, and impact visitors?
- Specifically:
- What should the bulletin boards include?
- What kinds of signs should we make?
- If we make dioramas, what part of the animal's life do you want to display?
- Where will you leave room for the computer so you may show your visitors your Google presentation?
- How will you share the crossword puzzles and word finds?
- How can I help you? What do you need?
Once we finish the meeting, then students will have a couple of hours to create, revise, and finesse their displays. I'll work as coach throughout the endeavor. Hence, it's a sneakers and jeans creativity day.
