Our trip to the Discovery Center was a huge success! We had such a wonderful time! I was so very proud of my students. They were respectful and polite. They received so many compliments about their behavior.
We visited the many different exhibits the Discovery Center had to offer, but the highlight of the trip was The Inventor’s Workshop we attended! Each team created a game with the supplies provided. They had to work cooperatively to plan their game, create it and write clear directions that others could follow. They even had to use each and every supply provided in their game. The students discovered that this feat was much more difficult than they expected. Every one had their own ideas, which made it difficult to work together. Many groups discovered that their plans were not detailed enough which caused a struggle when trying to use all the supplies. The greatest issue was writing the instructions! They discovered that their directions were missing quite a few details, thus making it very difficult to understand how to play the games!
What a wonderful day!!
