Time Travel

Standards of Thinking were our group focus this morning as we tuned in to The Children's Guide to Critical Thinking videos to learn the basic characteristics of critical thinkers.  We took notes and looked at examples of the five traits...fair, relevant, clear, logical, and accurate!

For math, second graders tackled the place value game, Card Capers by trying to use digits 0-9 to create a number closest to the round's target number.

For the bulk of our day, students were called on to help me with a slight dilemma where they used their learning to come through with flying colors!  Our ancient civilization time travel mystery served as a culminating event for this unit and we look forward to starting on exploring through problem solving when we are back together after the break!
