Our never-ending quest to tie classroom content to real life |
Last week was extremely productive, despite the fact that I left early on Tuesday due to illness, and I'm proud of the kids' work. On Monday, the mentors continued working on writing biographies about figures who have advanced some aspect of civil rights.Tuesday, during tutoring, scholars began preparing for their conferences, which will occur on the 7th and 8th.
Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday were a continuation of the Belief Systems Unit. They really started understanding how the beliefs they hold about themselves either boost them up or hold them back and we began a project that demonstrates these beliefs. In the project, they were asked to look ahead 10 years and ask, "What do I see?" Some kids saw themselves attending college, while others imagined their lives as mechanics or doctors. The students created posters of their imaginings and will present them this week.

I absolutely love the positive vibes from this trio of young scholars! |
