Another fabulous activity based on the Habits of Mind. This was based on creativity and the 3 language groups of the Virginian Indians. Ss created their own language and then wrote their names using their language. @MsFranz_ATS @APSsocstudies

One more for your grade 3 & up kids, and high-flying 1st & 2nd graders! All 135 of our lessons at every grade level include a "brain-building" activity that reinforces key skills while challenging kids (and teachers, too!) to think creatively and independently. Have a great day!

Kindergartners read “The Turn-Around, Upside-Down Alphabet Book” and practiced their visualization skills by imagining their letter of the week “K” into superhero’s, balance scale, seesaws, rainbows and much more! What would you visualize? @APSGifted @APS_ATS #CCT

Hard to read through a screen but 4th grade students worked on Habits of Mind “Wanted” posters. One Ss shared they wanted to work towards thinking interdependently just like how @tkercounselor does! #helpeachotherasmuchaspossible #collaborate #habitsofmind @APSGifted @APS_ATS

Thank you for letting me visit @APS_ATS! Great to see all of the @APSPersonalized learning going on through problem based learning documented on @Seesaw. @CaitFranz I can’t wait to see how your students choose to show what they learned about historic 🌋 & earthquakes! @APSGifted
