Students worked really hard on revising and polishing their work. The recording process helped some find new words and images for their stories.

This has been a busy week for all Inventors as we finished props, practiced songs and staging for our Solstice Assembly while continuing our academic work and finishing some of our projects before the winter break.
Students worked in partners to finish a back drop with non-verbal symbol for our Rock Opera video. They practiced and memorized lines for their scenes. Then we filmed the 6 scenes and were able to do 3 - 6 "takes" of each.
Students were challenged by the limerick form and wrote funny and some touching poems.
Students worked on our Time Line researching and writing about Inventions & Inventors.
We continued our study of Fairy Tales. Each student read at least 10 Fairy Tales and identified themes in each. Then students wrote their own fairy tale with an eco-friendly theme. As an assessment, students watched scenes from Star Wars and identified fairy tale themes in the story and characters.
Students worked on an illustration for a CD cover for their personal narrative or poem.
We worked on multiplication and the standard algorithm for subtraction.
We reviewed the food chain on line.
Some students were able to finish all the above and take the Inventor's Challenge: Looking at pictures and sketches from many sources, they built a paper and dowel model of Leonardo DaVinci's canvas and wood parachute.
