<br />
<b>Set </b>is one of my favorite brain games. Is a group of 3 cards a set or not? You figure it out by deciding if every attribute is going to be the same or different; example, all purple shapes, all ovals, all shaded in, and different number of ovals. You can play the daily challenge <a href="https://www.setgame.com/set/puzzle" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;"><b>here</b></span></a> (look for the directions on the right side of the puzzle if you are new).<br />

<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Authentic Audience</span></b></h3>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Students love the creation part of their time in the STEAM Lab. But what happens to those creations once the class is over? </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The question I focused on for this STEAM project was "How do we share student's creative work in the real world?" </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I challenged the 5th grade students to create a STEAM Museum to display their creations for families to view before the music concert. This way students could take some time to create something they are proud of and share it with people they care about.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I wish you could see the thought and planning that went into these projects! </span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">How students worked to mix paints to get a desired color for their painting...</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">and students brainstormed how to make look like corn stocks in the field of that farm scene...</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">and a student figured out a way to use wire inside clay to stabilize their sculpture...</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">and how to attach all the pieces of the cat sculpture.</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And I was honored to watch students show off their creations to parents - to see their pride!</span>Mrs. Speerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08548604384086869104noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5405365197469675910.post-49683710620883207982019-06-04T12:26:00.002-07:002019-06-04T12:26:31.492-07:00eBooks for Summer Reading<span id="docs-internal-guid-9859d478-7fff-fb40-cf88-7f99c4ecf661"></span><br />

<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The lifestyle we live today with our tablets, and mobile phones wouldn’t be possible without computer programming.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Why Coding?</b></span></div>

<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Everything computers do is controlled by lines of code, called computer programs, which are written by coders, or programmers.</span></li>

</ul>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>What is Code?</b><br /><ul>
<li>Code is a set of instructions (or rules) that computers can understand; it might be helpful to think of code as a recipe.</li>
<li>People write code, code powers computers and computers power many everyday objects like phones, watches, microwaves and cars. In fact, almost anything powered by electricity uses code.</li>
<li>There are many names for people who code: coders, programmers, developers, computer scientists, software engineers, etc.</li>

We are using Flipgrid to share reflections on the reading with schools near Chicago, IL and Columbus, OH. We are also writing postcards to about 35 schools around the USA and Canada.<br />
<br />
We have created a map to show the location of schools from which we received postcards.<br />

And why should I care?</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures; letter-spacing: 0.2px;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">According to </span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; letter-spacing: 0.2px;">Merriam-Webster, metacognition is the "</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; letter-spacing: 0.2px;">awareness or analysis of one's own learning or thinking processes." It is really something many adults do without thinking about it! However, it is something we have to teach kids how to do.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; letter-spacing: 0.2px;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures; letter-spacing: 0.2px;">It is important for all of us to be able to solve difficult problems and to persevere in situations when we want to give up. </span></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures; letter-spacing: 0.2px;"><br /></span></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures; letter-spacing: 0.2px;">So how do we train ourselves (and our brains) not to give up? It takes hard work and practice. And that is why I have my 6th grade TAG students "Learning About Learning" in our current unit. After a discussion about what helps or hinders learning today, I am excited to see what else these bright young minds come up with!</span></span></span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; letter-spacing: 0.2px;">I didn't record the discussion, but a few of the great ideas shared:</span></span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.2px;">Learning happens when having some fun. We learn more about what we are interested in.</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.2px;">Someone else added that fun can be a distraction as well - so we put it on both sides. </span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.2px;">We are all individuals - we each have to learn what we need and want out of our learning environment.</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.2px;">Clear directions and expectations being helpful was something almost everyone agreed with.</span></span></li>
</ul>
