Students learned the divisibility rules for 3 and 9 today. Not only did they learn the rule bu they leaned to explain how and why the rule works. being able to explain how things work in math really shows deep understanding. Studnets also spent time identifying and doing research on the plant samples they collected last week. We finished off the day with our final young actors project session. What good fun! |

3.) POST A RESPONSE:
- Yesterday we learned what it means to inquire and that inquiry is how people naturally learn things on their own. Inquiry can be learning about something or learning how to do something
- Today I want you to think about a time you learned about something or how to so something, and then explain the process of learning it. Then write a BIG question with sub-questions for the little inquiry (Just like we did in the library)
SUCCESS CRITERIA:
- Explain what you learned and why you learned it
- Includes how did you learned it?
- Includes and big question
- includes at least 3-5 sub-questions you probably asked yourself. (You may not remember asking them and that. is okay. Just think about what questions you probably had to answer)
Mr. Fisher's EXAMPLE:
Something I learned is how to juggle. I had always wanted to juggle ever since I was in elementary school when my mother gave me a set of juggling balls. I never did learn as a kid. I started by looking at a juggling book that came with the set I bought. Then started watching juggling tutorial videos on You tube. After this, I practiced everyday for 15 minutes. Eventually I could juggle. After awhile I bought a nice set of juggling balls.
BIG QUESTION: How can I lean to juggle?
SUB-QUESTIONS:
- What do I need to juggle?
- How long will it take to learn?
- Which videos are best to watch?
- Do better juggling balls make juggling easier?
- What position do you hold your arms?
