Discovery Time

Today Ms. Analu and I introduced Discovery Time to her class.  Discovery Time is a personalized inquiry time where students have an opportunity to explore a passion, interest, or a curiosity.  After a brief introduction, the students ideated effortlessly proving that children really are naturally curious.  Students documented their idea using the app Pic Kids and then posted their ideas on their class's student-run blog.  We will follow up with a planning session. During this lesson, students will have to document how they will make their idea happen as well as note the materials they will need.  Their enthusiasm was contagious and I can't wait to continue either!
