Today, we did a lot of learning! So much that Mr. Hong and I were still very excited at the end of the day because it was so amazing! We had a unique opportunity to connect with a class from the U.S.A (Frankfort, Illinois) by having a Mystery Google Hangout with them! It was amazing to see how powerful technology can be in our learning. We learned questioning, geography, communication, and collaboration skills. Learning together is extremely powerful. it is important to learn and hear different perspectives to have a better understanding of a topic. Later in the day, we wrapped up our mini-inquiry unit and ended it with an amazing cheer! "When we inquire, we're on fire! The Learning Never Stops!" |
