Tools and Work
In our first module for Expedition we have been learning about how tools and the Habits of Character can help us do work and make things easier.
Students first learned about different tools and how they help with different jobs. Next we learned about the Habits of Character and how they help us accomplish our work. We have enjoyed closly reading The Most Magnificient Thing and The Little Red Pen. Through these readings we say different tools doing their jobs as well as the Habits of Character- perserverence, collaboration and iniative.
Next, students wokred in groups to create a magnificient thing for our classroom. Students needed to come up with an idea, collect tools, make a plan and collaborate to create the item. Our crew did a great job creating some signs for our room and working together.
