Day 5

We jumped right in with an activity about goals.  Some students came up with short term goals, other with longer term goals.  We had discussion about them, but I do believe we were most excited about the invention of a teleportation device for travel!

Here is a link to see all the ideas!"Extra, Extra, Read All About It!"

Our TedTalk today was about the edible world of insects!  We learned many new things about how many insects we already eat, cultures where insects are considered a typical part of the diet, and ideas about how using insects for a food source can be beneficial in a number of ways.  We also looked on Amazon.com for insect snacks - here's a link to what they have! Students then discussed ideas with each other on the topic, brainstormed individual Pro/Con lists, and then we created a class list.

The second half of the day was spent independently creating display boards for their class presentations tomorrow.  I'm very  excited to learn from these bright students!

Reminder: Our Open House Health Fair will be this Thursday, June 30th, from 10:30-11:30.
