This coming week, our inquisitive students are starting their wonder projects. They have all chosen a subject and will be researching or exploring their subject over the next few weeks. They are working to create a non-fiction book showing their learning about their wonder.
Mentors Needed! As not all answers are found in books, we are looking for mentors to help students explore their wonder. If you or someone you know has experience or knowledge in any of the following topics and would be willing to be a mentor, please let me know. Mentors come on a one-time or continual basis to share knowledge and guide students in their wondering. Wonder topics needing mentors: - engines and gears - First humans and the beginning of the Earth - water- conservation/molecules/origins - War- WWI or WWII or anyone who has served in the armed forces - Magic General Parent Wonder Volunteers Wonder projects are exciting, engaging and stimulating, but they work the best with many people helping out. Our Wonder blocks are Monday and Wednesdays from 10:25- 11:00 Roles of parent volunteers: -help students look for books in the library -help them write their questions or thoughts -help students read texts to find answers - explore the world of wonder with a student or small group If you are interested in being a regular or occasional Parent Wonder Volunteer, please let me know as soon as possible! Wonders projects will be starting up this coming Wednesday! Comments are closed.
